The majority of New Yorkers think embattled Mayor Eric Adams should resign from office or be removed following his indictment on federal charges, according to a new independent poll.
The Marist poll, conducted between Sept. 30 and Oct. 1, found at least 69% of New York City residents, including 71% of Democrats, think Adams should resign as mayor as he fights federal bribery, fraud and campaign finance violations that could land the former NYPD police captain in jail. Only 30% say Adams should serve out the rest of his term, the poll found.
