Very few will think of Eric Adams as a di blasio 2.0 until he behaves as a di blasio 2.0.
He might also be more clever than Di Blasio to make us think he improved obvious things but made other things worse. For example, he might clean the streets of homeless people to give us the visual of improvement, but make things much more unfair for non blacks and let blacks get away with more shinanigans.
A nice red wave took place in Long Island as well. NY might have a chance in getting a decent Republican governor. Republican voter enthusiasm is needed.
