Mayor Eric Adams criticized his Democratic primary rivals, Adrienne Adams and Andrew Cuomo, for running 'shadow campaigns' while he faces scrutiny amid low poll ratings and a corruption case. Despite a job approval rating of only 20%, he proclaimed he won’t withdraw from the race. Adams argued that his initiatives are being co-opted by his opponents and stated, 'I'm not a quitter, I'm a New Yorker,' emphasizing his commitment to continue fighting for his re-election amidst challenges.
Cuomo and Adrienne Adams are running shadow campaigns while I take hits on the front lines. They are not being scrutinized, they are not being questioned.
I'm not a quitter, I'm a New Yorker. We never surrender, never give up. This game is so far from over.
Everyone is now sounding like Eric Adams. They are trying to shift and know that my winning solution of turning around the city is what they want.
My job approval rating is low, but that doesn't spell re-election doom.
