New York City voters went to the polls on Tuesday to elect a new Mayor, Public Advocate, Comptroller, borough presidents, City Council, and more. Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams (D) defeated Guardian Angels founder and radio show host Curtis Sliwa (R) in the City’s mayoral race. Adams will succeed Bill de Blasio and assume office on January 1, 2022. Jumaane Williams (D) won reelection as Public Advocate, and Brad Lander (D) won his race for Comptroller.
All 51 City Council seats were up for election, but nearly two-thirds of current members are term-limited (several had already left the Council and were replaced in special elections), leaving only a handful of incumbents. Many of the newly elected Council members are more left-leaning than their predecessors and will likely shift the entire body leftward, though that may also depend on who replaces Corey Johnson (D) as Council Speaker. Seven people are currently vying for the top job: Adrienne Adams (D-Queens), Diana Ayala (D-Manhattan/Bronx), Justin Brannan (D-Brooklyn), Gale Brewer (D-Manhattan), Francisco Moya (D-Queens), Keith Powers (D-Manhattan), and Carlina Rivera (D-Manhattan).
