New York City Mayor Eric Adams has announced his intention to endorse Andrew Cuomo in the city's mayoral race. This follows months of tension between the two Democrats-turned-independents. Adams ended his own re-election campaign after poor polling numbers and had previously criticized Cuomo as a "snake and a liar" for allegedly pushing Black candidates out of races. However, Adams now plans to campaign alongside Cuomo in neighborhoods where he maintains strong support, citing the importance of addressing gentrification and engaging with the Black and brown communities. The endorsement was revealed in an interview with the New York Times, which took place after Adams and Cuomo were seen together at a Knicks game on Wednesday evening. This marks a significant shift in their relationship, as both had previously refused to endorse each other.
