Recent polling data reveals that New York City Mayor Eric Adams is facing significant disapproval from voters across all five boroughs, with a notable unpopularity even among his strongest demographic, black voters, where his approval rating is net negative. A poll conducted by the Manhattan Institute from April 8-11, 2024, involving 700 likely voters, shows that only 16% support Adams for the 2025 mayoral election, while 65% prefer someone else. This sentiment is echoed by comparisons of his unpopularity to that of Donald Trump among NYC voters.
Eric Adams is now as unpopular in NYC as Donald Trump. With the presidential election just 6.5 months away and the city's primary just 7.5 months after that, the mayor's running short on time to turn things around. My Sunday @NYDailyNews column https://t.co/BxP9jPW9YG
Notice how Trump blessed the Ukraine bill and all the MAGAs out there who hate Ukraine have been trained well enough to never mention it. Trump wins, opposition to Ukraine aid collapses.
You cannot rant about the Ukraine funding and not blame Trump. He capitulated on border funding and refused to push Republicans to vote against. Trump backed Johnson. Trump could have told Johnson to kill the bill unless there was border funding. He didn’t. Disgraceful. https://t.co/YfRl7Tra1l
It's not a head-to-head contest. Even the deltas are worthless without state-level granularity. This type of polling result is clickbait, IMO. https://t.co/eyj8hGsyvn
Bad political news for @NYCMayor: "In all five of the city’s boroughs, likely voters overwhelmingly disapprove of Adams’s job performance. Even in his strongest demographic, black voters, Adams’s approval rating is net negative." https://t.co/13aQ5BqHb0 https://t.co/znjaLpmlqU
