Mayor Adams fumes over draft audit flagging $2.3M in unreported spending by his 2021 mayoral campaign

Mayor Eric Adams on Monday sought to rebuff reports last week on a city Campaign Finance Board (CFB) draft audit that found his 2021 campaign failed to report over $2.3 million in expenses.

Hizzoner vented in frustration that the press got a hold of and reported on the audit given that it was a draft. Furthermore, he insisted his campaign should have been given a chance to respond to its findings before they became public.
