In a surprising turn of events, New York City Mayor Eric Adams has officially dropped out of the mayoral race, citing persistent campaign finance issues. His departure has prompted immediate reactions from the political landscape, with candidates Zohran Mamdani and Andrew Cuomo ramping up their attacks against each other. Jewish groups, primarily Orthodox, are reportedly consolidating support behind Cuomo, while analysts suggest Mamdani is still favored to win despite the chaotic shift. Critics argue that Adams’ exit reflects broader challenges within his administration and could reshape political power dynamics in New York City. The fallout from his exit is expected to keep the political discourse heated as candidates vie for position ahead of the upcoming election.
