This week, former governor Andrew Cuomo announced he is officially back in the race for mayor as an independent candidate, but is it too late for him? Meanwhile, Democratic primary winner Zohran Mamdani met with business leaders and Democrats in Washington looking to shore up support. NY1 investigative reporter Courtney Gross and political reporters Kelly Mena and Ayana Harry have the latest news and analysis in the race for mayor.
After that, five major lawsuits have been filed against Mayor Eric Adams in the last two weeks, alleging corruption, cronyism and promotions for sale at the NYPD. The “Off Topic" team examines the lawsuits and what it means for Mayor Adams’ reelection prospects.
