Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams won his second vote of approval from a fellow beep this weekend after Queens Borough President Donovan Richards agreed to support his bid for mayor.
“Our city is facing a crisis on every front. A social justice crisis, an economic crisis, a public health crisis, and the list goes on. The only way to bounce back properly is to have leadership we can trust. Eric is consistent and his positions don’t change for political convenience,” Richards said. “He’s the steady hand we need right now and I’m proud to stand by him.”
