In the last 50 years, only two mayors of New York City have been voted out of office after serving just one term. These mayors, Abe Beame and David Dinkins, were both loyal Democrats who had worked their way up in the party before becoming mayor. However, they struggled with the demands of the job and were seen as unable to handle the challenges facing the city.

Now, Eric Adams, the current mayor, seems to be facing similar difficulties. Halfway through his term, he is overwhelmed with problems and appears to have few solutions. His administration often seems slow to respond to issues, such as recent protests that disrupted the city before police could react.

Many people are questioning whether the city is being effectively governed under Adams’ leadership. A recent poll showed that his approval rating is at a low point, with many New Yorkers expressing doubts about his ability to lead.

There are also concerns about Adams’ personal qualities, with many people questioning his leadership, understanding of the city’s problems, and honesty.

Adams is facing legal troubles, as he is reportedly expecting to be indicted on charges related to illegal campaign contributions. These legal issues, combined with his handling of issues like crime, education, immigration, and the budget, have led to widespread criticism of his mayoralty.

Adams’ handling of the surge of illegal immigrants arriving in the city has also been criticized. While he has blamed others for the problem, he has not taken action to address the root causes or demand federal intervention.

Despite these challenges, Adams’ opponents in a potential 2025 Democratic primary are considered to be far-left candidates who may not appeal to mainstream voters. However, Adams’ future as mayor remains uncertain, and he will need to show significant improvement if he hopes to avoid being voted out of office after just one term.
