The mayor’s race got a jolt this week when three unions and the New York State Attorney General backed Adrienne Adams for mayor. Unions for municipal and hospitality workers endorsed the City Council Speaker, whose campaign had failed to gain momentum so far. The endorsements come as Andrew Cuomo has continued to lay low, perhaps resting on his lead in the polls. NY1 investigative reporter Courtney Gross, and political reporters Bobby Cuza and Dan Rivoli break down the latest developments in the race for mayor.
After that, the ”Off Topic” team continues its weekly series of profiles on Democratic mayoral candidates. This week, they discuss Scott Stringer — the former city comptroller now making a second run at the city’s top job.
