2024 PREVIEW | This promises to be a pivotal year in New York politics

With 2023 in the rearview mirror, all eyes will turn to the likely presidential rematch between President Joe Biden and his predecessor, Donald Trump, in the months ahead. But 2024 promises to be a pivotal year in New York politics as well.

Over the next 12 months, the New York political world is likely to see the ongoing federal investigation into Mayor Eric Adams’ 2021 campaign reach a conclusion; a continuing fight between Adams and the City Council over the municipal budget; further impacts of the migrant influx; a jam-packed state legislative session; and several highly competitive Congressional races.
