As the curtain goes up on the post-Labor Day push to Election Day, Mayor Adams, tanking in the polls, is making unsubtle tribal appeals to the Black communities that powered him to victory four years ago, frequently reminding voters that he is second Black mayor in city history after David Dinkins. But political leaders in vote-rich Harlem, Central Brooklyn, and Southeast Queens neighborhoods are increasingly connecting with Zohran Mamdani or Andrew Cuomo, and polls suggest that voters are doing the same.

When you were calling around to my staff saying is the announcement today that Eric is stepping down?' Hell no, Adams said a Democrat running for reelection as an independent. I'm never going to quit on the city of New York, we worked too hard to get here.

And if you believe that's what it should be, then that's fine, but the as the mayor of this city, I know what sex trafficking looks like, I know what women who are selling their bodies on the street the abuse they go through, I know the amount of assault on them, So those who can find a logical reason that a woman should be on the street, or a boy....it's wrong.

"Three years ago, thousands of migrants and asylum seekers began streaming into our city every week - and the Adams administration stepped up. We opened hundreds of emergency migrant shelters to ensure no family slept on the street. Since then, we have successfully helped more than 200,000 migrants leave our shelter system and take the next step toward self-sufficiency."

So far this year, we've had 100 fewer shootings compared to the same period last year. This six-month period compared to two years ago shows a 54 percent decrease in shootings.

Adams claimed his administration would build more housing in one term than Bloomberg and de Blasio did combined, a statement that raises skepticism due to past achievements.

Mayor Eric Adams demonstrated physical fitness by accepting a dare to perform pull-ups off a street light in Brooklyn while promoting public safety for NYCHA residents.

Mayor Adams emphasized the importance of local support during his campaign in Chinatown, highlighting his frequent visits and connection to the community. 'I am not just your mayor, I’m your brother,' he stated, reinforcing his ties to the voters.

Since June 10, the mayor's embattled reelection campaign has raised a little over $1.5 million, with significant contributions from prominent real-estate firms.

"This lawsuit is not a personal grievance; it is a statement against a corrupt system that betrays the public, silences truth, and punishes integrity."

Ackman expressed that while he respects Andrew Cuomo for his contributions to New York State, he perceives a lack of enthusiasm in Cuomo's approach to the campaign, highlighting his subdued energy and proposals. He believes Cuomo is not adequately prepared to contest a high-stakes election against Mamdani.

Bill Ackman is supporting Mayor Eric Adams' independent reelection campaign, urging Andrew Cuomo to step aside in order to improve Adams' chances against Democratic nominee Zohran Mamdani.
