Talking tough on crime is proving a winning formula for former NYPD captain Eric Adams as progressives moan.
As voting in the Democratic primary for New York Citys next mayor takes place (or, rather, concludes) tomorrow, ex-NYPD captain Eric Adams is in a strong position, having led in every recent poll, in some cases by wide margins. His victory, should it occur, in a city in which the Democratic primary is tantamount to a general election, will be another indicator of the gulf between working-class Democrats and elite progressives.

An Adams administration would most likely be a head-spinning time of marginalization for the left
