Former Bronx BP Ruben Diaz Jr. backs Cuomo for NYC mayor, dealing blow to Adams | amNewYork
Briefly

Former Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz Jr. publicly endorsed Andrew Cuomo for NYC Mayor, distancing himself from incumbent Eric Adams. Joining forces with the Teamsters union at a press conference, Diaz emphasized the need for strong leadership during the city's crisis. He also noted Cuomo’s positive impact on Bronx infrastructure and financial support for the Hip Hop Museum. This endorsement, echoing Cuomo's rhetoric, marks a pivotal shift in Bronx political dynamics, as Diaz had previously supported Adams' campaign in 2021, helping to rally Latino voters.
At this point in time New York City needs a steady hand, someone who is a strong leader that can deal with the issues we face in our own homes.
I am wholeheartedly, 100% endorsing Cuomo, providing crucial support that might sway public sentiment in his favor as he seeks to regain political ground.
