New York City Mayor Eric Adams decided to pull out of a candidates forum featuring many of his opponents in the Democratic primary. Adams cited legal advice to abstain from such events until a judge rules on his public corruption case. At least six candidates are challenging Adams in the upcoming Democratic primary.
Adams also mentioned that a candidate who was 'running in the shadows' was not included in the forum, hinting at former Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who has been garnering endorsements without confirming his candidacy publicly.
