New York Mayor Eric Adams announced on Sunday that he is dropping out of his campaign for a second term, throwing the race into a spin just five weeks ahead of Election Day, according to the New York Times.
According to a pair of sources who spoke to the paper, Adams has been exploring exit options to avoid a potentially embarrassing defeat. He was reportedly discussing a potential job in the Trump Administration as an ambassador to Saudi Arabia, but those talks ultimately fell apart, according to the Times.
