(Bloomberg) Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams narrowed his lead after a corrected vote count in the Democratic primary for New York Cityâs mayor Wednesday, following the botched release of erroneous ranked-choice voting results Tuesday that plunged the vote count into chaos.
Elections officials effectively threw out Tuesdayâs tally, which erroneously counted 135,000 extra test ballots alongside 800,000 legitimate Election Day and early votes and issued a new result which showed Adams leading with 51.1%, compared to 48.9% for city Sanitation Commissioner Kathryn Garcia. Civil rights lawyer Maya Wiley was eliminated after the eighth round.
