“Whoever follows me at City Hall must continue the work we started. Lowering the cost of living, investing in quality of life, and staying laser-focused on reducing crime, and disorder through investments in policing, mental health, substance abuse care, homelessness services and community-based initiatives.”
Adams dropped out, leaving Zohran Mamdani, former Gov. Andrew Cuomo and Republican nominee Curtis Sliwa.
“But I must also sound a warning: extremism is growing in out politics. Our children are being radicalized to hate our city and our country,” Adams said. “Political anger is turned into political violence. Too often, the city’s forces use local government to advance divisive agendas with little regard for how it hurts every day New Yorkers.”
“Major change is welcome and necessary, but beware of those who claim the answer is to destroy the very system we’ve built together over generations.”

Cuomo welcomed the decision, he posted on social media.
“The choice @ericadamsfornyc made today was not an easy one, but I believe he is sincere in putting the well-being of New York City ahead of personal ambition. We face destructive extremist forces that would devastate our city through incompetence or ignorance, but it is not too late to stop them.Mayor Adams has much to be proud of in his accomplishments. Only in New York can a child raised in a tenement in Bushwick, who once worked as a squeegee boy and a mailroom clerk, rise to become mayor. Whatever differences we may have, Eric Adams’ story is undeniably one of resilience, a testament to the spirit of this city.”
