In the race for New York City comptroller, two Democratic candidates are taking different approaches in their stance against Mayor Eric Adams, highlighting a growing divide in how city officials respond to the embattled mayor.
“The truth is he’s not going to resign; he’s made that clear,” Levine stated in a recent interview, maintaining a measured approach to the situation.
