New York City Mayor Eric Adams, a Democrat, announced this week that he will be dropping out of the Democratic primary and running as an independent candidate in the 2025 mayoral election in the city.
In a Thursday video shared on X, formerly Twitter, Adams explained that he had initially hoped to “fight” for his values in the upcoming Democratic primary election for mayor of New York City. The Democrat mayor noted that despite over 25,000 New York residents signing his Democratic primary petition, the “dismissal of the bogus case” against him “dragged on too long” and made it “impossible” for him to campaign in the Democratic primary while facing “false accusations.”
