The recent development of pro-Israel Mayor Eric Adams dropping out of the New York City mayoral race has raised questions about its impact on the city’s Jewish community. Despite Adams’ decision, polls indicate a strong lead for Maya Wiley and Tina Mamdani, with Mamdani expected to win 52% of the vote in a potential face-off against Andrew Cuomo.
This shift in the race dynamics has prompted discussions among NYC Jews regarding their political influence and representation in the coming mayoral leadership.
Stay tuned for more updates as the election season progresses.
