2021 New York City mayoral election

← 2017 November 2, 2021 2025 →
 
Party Democratic Republican

Incumbent mayor

Bill de Blasio
Democratic



The 2021 New York City mayoral election will consist of Democratic and Republican primaries on June 22, 2021, followed by a general election on November 2, 2021. The primaries will be the first New York City mayoral election primaries to use ranked-choice (up to five ranks), instant-runoff voting, as opposed to the plurality voting of previous primaries.[1]

Incumbent Mayor of New York City Bill de Blasio is barred from running for a third term by term limits.[2]

Notable candidates include (in alphabetical order by surname): Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams; former director of the US Office of Management and Budget Shaun Donovan; former commissioner of the NYC Dept. of Sanitation Kathryn Garcia; businessman Fernando Mateo; former Citigroup executive Raymond McGuire; former social services nonprofit CEO Dianne Morales; Guardian Angels founder Curtis Sliwa; NYC Comptroller Scott Stringer; former counsel to Bill de Blasio Maya Wiley; and former presidential candidate Andrew Yang. Dozens of other members of the New York City business and political communities also campaigned or are campaigning.

By May 2021, thirteen candidates had qualified for the Democratic Party primary and two for the Republican Party primary. There are also minor party and independent campaigns for the general election in November.[3]

Democratic primary

Background

In 2019, New York City voters passed Ballot Question #1 to amend the City Charter to give "Give voters the choice of ranking up to five candidates in primary and special elections for mayor, public advocate, comptroller, borough president, and city council beginning in January 2021".[4] The first election in the city to use ranked-choice voting was in the 24th council district in Queens, which took place on February 2, 2021.[5] This will be the first time ranked-choice voting is used in a New York City mayoral election.

In 2019, journalists and political commentators predicted several potential candidates, including Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams, Bronx Borough President Rubén Díaz Jr., NYC Council Speaker Corey Johnson, NYC Comptroller Scott Stringer, and NYC Public Advocate Jumaane Williams.[6][7] By 2021, a number of candidates had declared themselves; most were first-time candidates who had never held political office, rather than sitting elected officials.

Polling in late January and early February showed businessman Andrew Yang as the frontrunner, with Adams in second and Stringer in third place.[8][9] As of January 20, 2021, of the major declared candidates, New York City councilmember Carlos Menchaca and former Commissioner of the NYC Dept. of Veterans' Services Loree Sutton were considered the weakest candidates and most likely to drop out, as both of them posted very poor fundraising numbers.[10] Sutton withdrew from the race on March 10, 2021[11] and Menchaca withdrew on March 24, 2021.[12] By the middle of March, three candidates, Stringer, Dianne Morales, and Maya Wiley, were widely considered to be the chief competitors for the progressive vote.[13]

In April, Stringer, who was generally polling in third-place, was accused of sexual abuse by Jean Kim, who claimed that Stringer had forcibly kissed and groped her when she worked on his 2001 campaign for Public Advocate.[14][15][16] Fellow candidates Morales, Adams, Yang, and Raymond McGuire condemned the acts in the allegation; while candidates Wiley, Kathryn Garcia, and Shaun Donovan called for him to drop out.[17] Stringer denied the allegations, claiming that the relationship had been consensual.[18] In June, a second woman accused him of sexual misconduct in 1992.[19]

In early May, Donovan and McGuire were characterized as being out of touch with everyday New Yorkers for greatly underestimating the median cost of a home in Brooklyn.[20] In late May, Yang, who lives in Hell's Kitchen, faced some ridicule for answering that Times Square was his favorite subway station. The response was met with criticism despite Yang living three blocks from the station. [21] Later in May, Morales's campaign lost three senior staff members, including the newly hired campaign manager, amid allegations of a poor workplace culture and union-busting.[22] Morales's campaign lost some endorsements and support.[23].

In June, due to ongoing rumors that Eric Adams lived in New Jersey,[24] he invited reporters to Bed-Stuy to tour what he says is his apartment, located in one of the properties he owns. Its décor and contents led to further questions by reporters and rivals about whether he actually resided there.[25].

Four days before the end of the balloting period, Garcia and Yang campaigned together.[26] Yang asked his supporters to rank Garcia second, though she did not make a similar request of hers.[27] Adams claimed the alliance was an attempt to disenfranchise Black and Latino voters, a claim that Garcia, Yang, Wiley, and even many of his own supporters disputed, CNN’s Jake Tapper calling it “a wild and baseless accusation”.
