The 2025 New York City mayoral election will be held on November 4, 2025, to elect the mayor of New York City. Incumbent Democratic mayor Eric Adams is running for re-election to a second term in office. He was indicted on federal corruption charges in September 2024 and has faced calls to resign from office. The Department of Justice ordered prosecutors to dismiss the charges without prejudice in February 2025.[1]

Primary elections are scheduled to be held on June 24, 2025, with the early voting period beginning ten days prior. In New York City, primaries are held using ranked-choice voting.[2]
Background
editEric Adams was elected mayor of New York City in 2021, narrowly winning a contested primary election and defeating Republican nominee Curtis Sliwa in the general election. Adams' tenure has been characterized by controversy, with the mayor supporting tough-on-crime policies such as the reintroduction of plainclothes police officers and increased policing in the city's subway system.[3][4] Adams has also received criticism for his handling of the migrant housing crisis,[5] the FBI investigation into his 2021 campaign,[6] and his support for zero tolerance policies against the homeless.[7] A December 2023 poll published by Quinnipiac University Polling Institute showed Adams' approval rating at 28% among registered voters, the lowest approval of any mayor since the institution began polling in the city in 1996.[8] An early October 2024 poll conducted by Marist College found his approval rating to be just 26%, and that 69% thought he should resign.[9] Due to Adams' unpopularity, speculation has arisen about the potential for a left-wing primary challenger to his re-election bid.[10] As such, two assemblymembers, senators and comptrollers announced that they would run against Adams.
On September 25, 2024, following a series of criminal investigations into his administration, Adams was indicted on federal bribery, fraud, and conspiracy charges.[11] He is the first New York City mayor to be charged with crimes while in office, and has received several calls to resign before the end of his term.[12][13][14]
On February 10, 2025, the United States Department of Justice's acting U.S. Deputy Attorney General, Emil Bove, ordered federal prosecutors to dismiss all charges against Adams without prejudice pending a review to be conducted following the general election in November.[1][15] This sparked a series of resignations within the Department of Justice, where 7 prosecutors, including acting U.S. Attorney Danielle Sassoon and Assistant U.S. Attorney Hagan Scotten—who was the lead prosecutor on the case—resigned.[16][17] Seven days later, Brad Lander (who also is a candidate in this election), under his power as the city comptroller issued a publicly viewable letter to Eric Adams.[18] The letter gave Adams an ultimatum till February 21 to present a contingency plan to deal with the crisis.[19] In the event such plan was not presented by then, Lander stated in the letter that he would initiate the "Inability Committee" (one of the two ways to oust the mayor).[18][20]
