The polls have finally closed in the 2021 citywide elections after early and Election Day voters cast their ballots on who will run New York City for the next four years.
The New York City Board of Elections will soon begin reporting preliminary returns for each of the contests, and we will report that data to you as we receive it. The figures will include all early votes and Election Day ballots cast; they do not include any absentee ballots.
As expected, numerous media outlets have called the mayoral race for the Democratic nominee, Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams [1], who easily bested his Republic rival, Guardian Angels founder Curtis Sliwa. Adams is projected to replace the term-limited Bill de Blasio on Jan. 1 as New York City's 110th mayor.
Other citywide races to watch include Public Advocate Jumaane Williams' re-election bid for public advocate. The Democrat's primary opposition is Republican nominee Dr. Devi Elizabeth Nampiaparampil.
New Yorkers are also electing a new comptroller, with Brooklyn City Council Member and Democratic nominee Brad Lander squaring off against Republican hopeful Daby Benjamine Carreras.
All 51 City Council seats and five Borough Presidents are on the line; Manhattan residents will also be electing a new district attorney to replace the outgoing Cy Vance Jr.
