About this video
Former Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced Monday that he’s staying in the New York City mayoral race as an independent candidate.
But there’s an asterisk.
Cuomo wants the other independents, including Mayor Eric Adams, to agree that there should be only one independent candidate in the race to challenge Democratic nominee Zohran Mamdani, and that that candidate should be decided by polling in mid-September.
Adams replied to Cuomo’s suggestion about consolidating the independents in the race based around September polling with what might, in some circles, be regarded as a one finger salute.
