it is really maya wiley who is now the standardbearer by default, dianne morales imploded, wiley notrily the favorite of various socialists and progressive groups, but she is now the default so there's been a coalescing around her. alexandria ocasio-cortez endorsed her. it would be interesting to see where she ends up if she can come from behind and went and pull a de blasio. at this point years ago, de blasio was the front runner. adams is that person but doesn't have the lead that de blasio had in 2013. i was at the races much more volatile and it was back then. and he of the front page piece in "the new york times" saying, i mean, yuri had maya wiley who's got the endorsement of alexandria ocasio-cortez, 1199 union, another progressives, but the front page piece was about de blasio, even though she was his lawyer, city lawyer, working behind the scenes for adams saying in that way hwould preserve his progressive legacy. >> yes, it is a strange thing because i would not agree with de blasio that eric adams best position to preserve his legacy. the thing a politics, a lot is person.

maya wiley chose to run against the nypd because the secret to life is timing, at a time when crime iss of new york. what do you take away from the new york city mayor's race? the point we made last night, this is important nationally because they have more constituents in new york city than 38 of the united states, than over 70 u.s. senators. >>. >> look, a new york city mayor's race is a huge bellwether to democrats. it's probably the largest progressive, center-left electorate in the country. juanita's right, the votes aren't in, but the statistics are strong. if you add up the candidates who did not run on the maya wiley of defund, reform, massively change the police, they did really well, and they did pretty poorly. i think she's going wind up in second, maybe for another round or two, but i would be stun first down she makes it to mayor. i think the chances are high it's going to be adams. it was a clear referendum. in practical politics it's always your own side that can get you in trouble. in the republican party we have january 6th deniers and space laser cooks but the democra

joining me now, new york city democratic mayoral candidate maya wiley. you for joining us this evening. i really appreciate it. that video, beyond disturbing. what are you going to do about violent crime like this if you get elected as mayor here? >> that video is beyond disturbing. it's outrageous, and we have real questions about whether that was a hate crime. we know that there was something mumbled to the man who was asian, who was stabbed, and this is something that's been a devastating and unacceptable crisis in this city. but what we have to really try to do and understand is do things in the way that is smart, that goes after the problem smartly and well. and one is to recognize that we need our new york city police department, one, focused on the crimes that are on the rise and deploying our resources with that in mind and doing it smartly. but that also means a balance with all the things that we know will solve the problem once and for all. and this is the thing about public safety. what we're trying to do is grow it and make it smarter because

bill deblasio and maya wiley were trading in the polls. lace, ranked choice voting meaning second place may be enough to secure a win. let's put this race into perspective. new yorkcy has a population higher than 40 states and the biggest police department in america and gdp is 1.5 trillion, the largest economy of any metro area in the country. so it matters who governs the big apple. maya wiley joins me now. we welcome any candidate on the show as well. what is the reason behind this momentum? do you credit people like aoc? >> i'm the progressive that can win this race and the endorsements have been extremely important proof points in that very coin. yes, everyone from 1199, the most powerful local union in the country, progressive union of our essential workers from nurses to home health aides endorsed me in february. we're so excited to have the entire brooklyn delegation, including congressman hakeem jeffries, who also have endorsed. and, yes, congresswoman aoc. that's all we have to call her. and jamal bowman. the proof point is the pr

maya wiley has taken more of a left-wing approach.g and kathryn garcia campaigning together. it almost looks like they're endorsing each other, if you look at the video. but they're not. they didn't do that. they were criticized for it by eric adams. and he even said that them coming together on juneteenth, saturday, in his opinion, he's quoted in the times as saying they're saying we can't trust a person of color to be the mayor of new york city. that's quite an accusation. what do you know about why they came together and his criticism of it? >> andrew yang noted, he is an asian-american, living in new york city. and adam tried to clarify that statement. andrew yang has been open about his respect for kathryn garcia, made open overturs for months about coming together. andrew yang said he would love to see her as his second pick. it's an interesting dynamic around rank choice voting. dparsa has told me and others she is focused on trying to get andrew yang's second choice voters. he has been complimentary of garcia, as a city politi

he is got almost a 10% lead over maya wiley.learly since nework is embarking on right choice voting for the first time in mayoral election, there still a long way to go was not now there will be a process of tallying the second, third, fourth, fifth choices of voter so it will take a while. i think the most interesting thing that is happened is the onus complete come flats -- complete collapse of andrew yang who was covered by the press as a front runner for most of the time of this mayoral campaign. eric adams, former police captain was a reformer against police abuse within the department but w has emerged as a more centrist candidate and focusing on how not only his experience in government, but his ability -- his willingness to tackle rising crime in the city. another part of adams' political viewpoint that has not gotten as much coverage, he's a picks of of charter schools. -- big supporter of charter schools. he got millions of dollars from many billionaires who are also charter school backers. so that remains to be seen h

>> i am hopeful that i will be the democratic nominee, but i certainly would not count out maya wiley or eric adams. it's going to be a close election. then we come together to make it so that we are putting what's in the city's interest first and i will certainly support whoever is the democratic nominee. >> all right. katherine garcia, waiting i guess you have to wait days, maybe weeks, to find out who won this nomination, appreciate you coming on and sharing your perspective with us. >> thank you so much for having me. >>> coming up, we're going to have the latest on that breaking news we told you about at the top of the show involving bill cosby set to be released from prison today after the high court in pennsylvania overturned his sexual assault conviction. i will speak to arm forespecial prosecutor in the case. the latest out of the surfside, florida, sadly the death toll rises. rises. ♪ ♪ when technology is easier to use... ♪ barriers don't stand a chance. ♪ that's why we'll stop at nothing to deliver our technology as-a-service. ♪ to deliver our technology there's interest yo

the winner will be one of these three candidates, eric adams, maya wiley, kathryn garcia.both wiley and garcia is potentially significant. ranked choice voting has been done. it's not that widespread right now, but it's been around in a number of places for a while. in fact, if you look at every ranked choice election that's taken place in this country, really, in the history of ranked choice voting, the biggest margin that somebody who's finished in the first choice round outside of first place, the biggest gap that's been overcome to win one of these things has been 9.3 points from the first choice. wiley right now, if you play it out to the decimal point, is 9.2 points behind eric adams. again, there are mail-in ballots that will be counted. maybe this will get tighter. there are still a few more votes to come in tonight, but i think it's clear eric adams is going to lead on the first choice when they're tabulated. in about a week or two, they'll run through all these multiple rounds ever voting. but the history of ranked choice voting has been the candidate who finishe

police officer eric adams is the early leader with 32% of the first voice vote, trailing adams maya wiley at 22% and catherine garcia with 20% of the vote. fourth place goes to 2020 presidential candidate andrew yang who led early in this race but who conceded last night. on the republican side guardian angels founder curtis sliwa, throw back to the '80s won the republican primary so he moves on to the general election. but we won't know, we will get into some of these numbers and what happens next because it is a little bit confusing about who still could win if it's not eric adams. we will get into those numbers in just a minute. >> yeah. yeah. new york voting. anybody here live in new york other than -- i'm telling you -- i'm telling you, like if republican legislators tried to concoct a voting system like new york city's and new york state's, man, it would be like jim crow 8.0. it is chaos up there, eugene. and it always s you know, during the 2020 election, and i would call my friends and i would say, hey, have you voted yet. they go, i've been in line for eight hours, i've been wait

. >> i know that one of the adams' biggest competitors is maya wiley, recently endorsed by alexandriant budget to social services. people would call that defunding the police. but it is just details on how to reallocate the money. how are voters reacting to the proposals? >> it depends which voters you are talking to. i think there is a very real conversation thing. i believe that maya wiley and eric adams firmly believe what they are saying to the electorate that their method for tackling crime is the best. and there is a conversation among democrats i think across the country about what is the best way to tackle gun violence. is it some combination of more aggressive policing, precision policing, plus the groups like violence interrupters who have credibility with people who might be picking up guns and shooting each other. but they -- they are both essentially talking about the same thing, in a way. wiley and adams are talking about finding ways to stop the cycle of violence. >> uh-huh. >> because the gun violence is cyclical. it is -- gun violence begets gun violence. so many of t

i am a brooklyn knight and i love being a brooklyn knight. >> so your challenger maya wiley got a majorake guns away from police officers. she's criticizing your approach saying nobody is seriously talking about taking guns away from cops. i don't support that. eric thinks the solution to every problem is a badge and a gun. sometimes armed police are the solution, but some problems we actually make worse when we bring in a cop who isn't trained for the situation rather than a mental health specialist. i guess that's a way of saying refund, refund more mental health instead of cops. what do you say to her? >> listen. my story is clear, erin. i'm a young man 15 years old arrested and beat by police officers. instead of saying why me? why not me? i fought for reform and public safety together. i am known for testifying in federal court. the case floyd against nypd, the judge mentioned me in her ruling. i am known for what i did as a state lawmaker and dealing with the abuse of stop and frisk. i'm also known for dealing with violence in our city. so ms. way iley, she knows thatd my record.

maya wiley, kathryn garcia but you didn't endorse either one. why?ht about this long and hard, erin. look, two people i respect worked for me for many years. other folks in the race have worked very closely with including eric adams, the president of brooklyn where i'm from. it just didn't make sense to me in the end. i'm going to have to work with whoever is the winner on a really strong transition. this passing of the baton is not like normal elections. this is in the middle of the pandemic and the recovery. this has to be a seamless transition so i decided it was best to stay back, keep my views to myself and i'm ready to work with whoever wins. new york city is coming back strong c strong. it amazing to see the energy out there and amount of economic activity but this next mayor will have their hands full with the recovery for sure. >> can i ask one question? when you voted, i know you voted, did you do multiple choice or settle for one? >> i was adamant with everyone i spoke to, we did millions of dollars of advertising telling people please do
