De Blasio congratulates Adams’ primary win, still won’t say if he voted for him
NY Post
Mayor Bill de Blasio warmly congratulated Eric Adams on his victory in the Democratic primary to replace him Wednesday, just hours after the Brooklyn borough president’s competition conceded the race.
Hizzoner’s tweet is his first public remark on the outcome of the race — a contest where he declined to make a public endorsement, but made swipes at Adams’ opponents and was widely viewed as working behind the scenes to boost the ex-cop’s candidacy. “Congratulations to my fellow Brooklynite @ericadamsfornyc,” the mayor wrote on his personal Twitter account. “Winning the Democratic primary takes building a coalition of working families across our city and that’s exactly what you did. Looking forward to all you will do for the people of NYC!”More Related News
