The2021 New York City mayoral electionwas held on November 2, 2021. Incumbent MayorBill de Blasiowas term-limited and ineligible to run for re-election.

On June 22, 2021, the primary elections for the Democratic and Republican primaries were held. The 2021 primaries were the firstNew York City mayoral electionprimaries to useranked-choice votingrather than theplurality votingof previous primaries.[1][2]On election night,Guardian Angelsfounder and radio talk show hostCurtis Sliwawon the Republican primary with 67.9% of the vote, defeating New York State Federation of Taxi Drivers founderFernando Mateo.[3]BrooklynBorough Presidentand former police officerEric Adamshad a lead on election night in theDemocratic primarybut did not reach 50% of the vote, meaning that ranked-choice voting would come into play.[4]In the final round of tabulation of the ranked-choice vote in the Democratic primary, Adams defeated formerNew York City Department of SanitationCommissionerKathryn Garcia,50.4%–49.6%.

In the general election, Adams handily defeated Sliwa with 67.0% of the vote to become the 110th mayor of New York City and the city's second black mayor, afterDavid Dinkins.

History[edit]

In 2019, New York City voters passed Ballot Question #1 to amend the City Charter to "give voters the choice of ranking up to five candidates in primary and special elections for mayor,public advocate,comptroller,borough president,andcity councilbeginning in January 2021 ".[5]The first election in the city to useranked-choice votingwas in the 24th council district in Queens, which took place on February 2, 2021.[6]This was the first time ranked-choice voting was used in the New York City mayoral election.

In 2019, journalists and political commentators predicted several potential 2021 mayoral candidates, includingBrooklynBorough PresidentEric Adams,BronxBorough PresidentRubén Díaz Jr.,NYC Council SpeakerCorey Johnson,NYC ComptrollerScott Stringer,and NYC Public AdvocateJumaane Williams.[7][8]

IncumbentMayorofNew York CityBill de Blasiowas barred by term limits from seeking a third term.[9]

By May 2021, thirteen candidates had qualified for theDemocratic Party primary,and two for theRepublican Party primary.There are also minor party and independent campaigns for the general election in November.[10]

Democratic primary[edit]

Main article:2021 New York City Democratic mayoral primary

Polling in late January and early February 2021 showed businessmanAndrew Yangas the Democratic primary frontrunner, with Adams in second place and Stringer in third place.[11][12]

In April,Scott Stringerwas accused of sexual abuse by Jean Kim.[13][14][15]Stringer denied the allegations, claiming that the relationship had been consensual.[16]In June, a second woman accused him of sexual misconduct.[17]

On May 5, 2021,Politicoreported that a recent poll found that Eric Adams was leading the Democratic primary contest; this marked the first time since January that any Democratic candidate other than Yang had led in a public poll.[18]On June 7,Spectrum Newsreported that Adams had maintained a lead in the Democratic primary.[19]

On July 6, theAssociated Pressreported that Adams had won the Democratic primary.[4]The Guardianstated that Adams, a "former police captain", had prevailed "after appealing to the political center and promising to strike the right balance between fighting crime and ending racial injustice in policing".[20]An earlier report fromThe New York Timesasserted that Adams had run as a "working-class underdog" and had "hammered away at the message that he was the only candidate who could tackle both crime and police reform".[21]

Though Adams won the election easily in the heavily Democratic city, he received fewer votes thanBill de Blasioin either of his two mayoral runs, and lost many heavilyAsian Americanprecincts. This is partly attributed to Sliwa's pledge to halt the construction ofhomeless shelterswhich were proposed by Adams to be built in neighborhoods such as Asian-majoritySunset Park.Other issues of importance to Asian American activist leaders included proposed reforms to theSpecialized High Schools Admissions Testin high schools,bail reform,and plans to build new jails in neighborhoods such asChinatown, Manhattan.[178]
