Ballot count underway in NYC mayoral primary: Eric Adams has 10-point lead as Wiley, Garcia battle for second

[NYPOST] Eric Adams commanded a formidable 10-point lead of the first-choice votes in New York City’s hotly contested Democratic mayoral primary Tuesday. Late returns showed the Brooklyn borough president well ahead of the pack — but it will be a couple of weeks before a winner can actually be declared.

"New York City said our first choice is Eric Adams," he told a roaring crowd of supporters at his election night party in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.

"Brothers and sisters, the race is not over but the movement is here," Adams continued. "New Yorkers said the more we know Eric, the more we like Eric."

"Tonight all of us, we are on the precipice of gaining the keys to the prosperity of our city."

The first round of the Democratic mayoral primary voting had Adams (253,234 votes), Maya Wiley (177,722 votes) and Kathryn Garcia (155,812 votes) one, two, three, with 96.62 percent of the precincts reporting.

But Adams, a former NYPD captain, has opened a daunting lead, with 31.66 percent of the 799,827 ballots counted as of 1:48 a.m.

With 99% of the precincts reporting, an abrupt stop in the count was noted at 4-5:01 AM this morning. The tally 'reset' with 60% of the 3 candidate exchanging numerical counts by extremely accurate talleys...one candidate received 56 thousand and 3/5th votes with the previous front runner loosing 19 thousand and 2/5th votes, with the 3rd runner upp candidate being disqualified because the district lines were moved in the afternoon of the election day.

As you know, this is New York, in a Democrat primary, anything can happen, you witnessed it so its legitimate according to our rules.
