Eric Adams wins NYC mayoral race

NYP: Eric Adams will be the next mayor of New York City.

The Democrat cruised to victory Tuesday night over Republican candidate Curtis Sliwa in a race that the Associated Press called just 11 minutes after the polls closed at 9 pm.

Adams had 73 percent of the vote while Sliwa carried just 22 percent, according to returns from the Board of Elections with 34 percent of precincts reporting.
