Andrew Yang, Eric Adams draw the most fire in chaotic NYC mayoral debate

Democrats vying to become the next New York City mayor duked it out on stage Wednesday during a chaotic, often rambling second debate that saw frontrunners Eric Adams and Andrew Yang drawing the most fire.

The frenetic two-hour showdown among the eight contenders culminated in a heated exchange between the two leading candidates. Adams, the Brooklyn borough president, charged that tech entrepreneur Yang didn’t have the chops to lead the Big Apple, noting that he left the city during the pandemic and had never voted in a municipal election.
