Mayor Eric Adams says gun violence in New York City is at a record low, with the fewest shootings and homicides ever recorded over the first five months of the year. Meanwhile, State Senator John Liu plans to endorse Assemblymember Zohran Mamdani, a democratic socialist, for mayor. Plus, early voting begins Tuesday in New Jersey’s gubernatorial primary. This will be the first primary without the county line ballot format, and unaffiliated voters can register with a party at the polls.
