NYC Mayor/2021 Megathread

Go Garcia! She would totally have my #1 ranking

Yang has completely flatlined. I don’t see a path for him and wouldn’t be surprised if he ends up third or fourth after the ballots are redistributed.

Garcia will do well in Manhattan, Adams will be very strong with black vote, Wiley could assemble some lefty + black community coalition, etc.

I don’t see what Yang’s path is, especially when the left gravitates toward Wiley and likely ranks Garcia higher than him, while being a non-starter among most non-Asian minority groups. I guess he just banks on low info voters ranking him due to name recognition?

I dont see why people still think Adams is #1? Seems he's gotten a lot of criticism over the past few weeks, while I would assume the moderates are going for Garcia instead of Adams.

He’s pulled strong numbers with black voters, who obviously represent a sizable portion of NYC Ds

In one of the most brazen and shameful displays I’ve seen someone do while campaigning in office, Stringer announces results of an audit of Garcia’s dept a week before voting starts

What a loser. I have a high tolerance for shenanigans, but this would make me want to slap him if I saw him in public and had the chance LOL

Really looks like Adams will win regardless of his final round opponent. Marist has him snagging something like over 70% of the redistributed black vote and I don’t see that budging in the next couple weeks.

If he holds that and does respectably with other demographics, he wins.

Sweeps almost every borough while the not-Adams finalist (Garcia or Wiley) takes Manhattan.
