Eric Adams Is Elected Mayor of New York City

Eric Leroy Adams was elected the 110th mayor of New York City Tuesday, following a campaign in which he won the support of New Yorkers across class and racial lines with promises to restore the pandemic-ravaged city to its former glory.

埃里克·勒羅伊·亞當斯 (Eric Leroy Adams) 週二當選為紐約市第 110 任市長，此前他在競選活動中贏得了紐約人跨越階級和種族界限的支持，並承諾讓這座遭受大流行蹂躪的城市恢復昔日的輝煌。

The Associated Press declared the 61-year-old Democratic Brooklyn borough president the winner over Republican anti-crime activist Curtis Sliwa. Adams had 67% of the vote with 65% of precincts reporting, according to the AP, which called the race 11 minutes after polls closed.

美聯社宣布，這位 61 歲的民主​​黨布魯克林區區長戰勝了共和黨反犯罪活動家柯蒂斯·斯利瓦。據美聯社報導，亞當斯獲得了 67% 的選票，其中 65% 的選區報告了投票結束後 11 分鐘的比賽。

“I’m perfectly imperfect, and the city is made up of perfectly imperfect people,” Adams said at an Election Night party at the Marriott hotel in Downtown Brooklyn. “That’s the combination that will allow us to create a perfect city where no one is left behind.”

"我是完全不完美的，這座城市由完全不完美的人組成，”亞當斯在布魯克林市中心萬豪酒店舉行的選舉之夜派對上說。 “這種組合將使我們能夠創建一個沒有人掉隊的完美城市。”

Flanked by family and supporters, Adams used his victory speech to highlight the resolve of blue-collar New Yorkers who helped propel him to City Hall. He also called for unity in a “divided” city, pledging to bring firefighters, police officers and other civil servants into the fold.

在家人和支持者的陪伴下，亞當斯用他的勝利演講強調了幫助推動他進入市政廳的藍領紐約人的決心。他還呼籲在一個“分裂”的城市中團結起來，承諾將消防員、警察和其他公務員納入其中。

The mayor-elect also targeted business leaders as partners in the city’s future growth, seeking to deviate from Mayor Bill de Blasio’s anti-business rhetoric.

這位當選市長還將商業領袖作為該市未來發展的合作夥伴，試圖偏離市長比爾·德布拉西奧 (Bill de Blasio) 的反商業言論 

“We have to get this out of our head that the CEOs in this city don’t want to participate in uplifting our city,” he said. “It’s time to build bridges we’ve destroyed in the past. We need each other.”

 

我們必須擺脫這個城市的首席執行官不想參與提升我們城市的想法，”他說。 “是時候建造我們過去摧毀的橋樑了。我們需要彼此。”

In another contrast with de Blasio, who clashed with former Governor Andrew Cuomo, Adams also used the moment to showcase his determination to work alongside Governor Kathy Hochul. Taking center stage in the middle of Adams’s Tuesday night speech, Hochul called her relationship with Adams the beginning of a “new era of cooperation.”

與前州長安德魯科莫發生衝突的德布拉西奧形成鮮明對比的是，亞當斯還利用這一時刻展示了他與州長凱西霍赫爾一起工作的決心。在亞當斯週二晚上的演講中，霍赫爾稱她與亞當斯的關係是“合作新時代”的開始。

Following the speech, Adams’s campaign said he was headed to an after-party at the members-only club Zero Bond in Manhattan, where billionaire Mike Novogratz and Wendi Deng were already in attendance.

演講結束後，亞當斯的競選團隊表示，他將前往曼哈頓的會員制俱樂部 Zero Bond 參加派對，億萬富翁邁克·諾沃格拉茨 (Mike Novogratz) 和鄧祺蓉 (Wendi Deng) 已經出席。

Adams’s election to what’s known as the “second-toughest job in America” catapults him to a national political figure at the center of some of the nation’s most intractable debates.

亞當斯當選了所謂的“美國第二難的工作”，這使他一躍成為全國一些最棘手辯論的中心人物 

He’s a reform-minded but tough-on-crime former police officer at a time of rising worries about crime and frayed police-community relations. He’s a moderate Democrat in an increasingly progressive party. And he’s proclaimed an end to “anti-business” rhetoric while demanding the city’s businesses better address income inequality and other social ills.

在人們對犯罪的擔憂日益加劇和警察與社區關係破裂的時期，他是一位具有改革意識但對犯罪持強硬態度的前警察。他是一個日益進步的政黨中的溫和民主黨人。他宣布結束“反商業”言論，同時要求該市的企業更好地解決收入不平等和其他社會問題。

Tuesday’s victory over Sliwa, founder of the Guardian Angels anti-crime patrol, was preordained in a city where Democrats outnumber Republicans by roughly 7-to-1. Sliwa tried to capture the city’s attention with TikTok videos and publicity stunts centered around a platform of public safety, tax reform and animal rights. Adams dismissed his challenger’s campaign as “buffoonery.”

星期二戰勝守護天使反犯罪巡邏隊的創始人斯利瓦是注定要發生在一個民主黨與共和黨以大約 7 比 1 的比例超過共和黨的城市。 Sliwa 試圖通過 TikTok 視頻和以公共安全、稅收改革和動物權利平台為中心的宣傳噱頭來吸引該市的注意力。亞當斯將挑戰者的競選活動斥為“小丑”。

In a new era for city government, Democrat Alvin Bragg was elected Manhattan’s first Black district attorney and Democrat Brad Lander was elected city comptroller.

在市政府的新時代，民主黨人阿爾文·布拉格當選為曼哈頓第一位黑人地區檢察官，民主黨人布拉德·蘭德當選為紐約市審計長。

De Facto Mayor-Elect
Adams has conducted himself as the de facto mayor-elect since July, when a lengthy ballot-counting process ended with Adams atop a 13-candidate Democratic field. Primary election results showed that Adams won on the strength of Black, Hispanic and low-income voters in the city’s outer boroughs. After his victory, he was quick to proclaim himself the “face of the new Democratic party” and weigh in on vaccine mandates, school programs and other decisions made by outgoing Mayor Bill de Blasio.

事實上的當選市長
自 7 月以來，亞當斯一直擔任事實上的當選市長，當時漫長的計票過程以亞當斯在 13 名民主黨候選人中名列前茅而告終。初選結果顯示，亞當斯憑藉該市外圍區的黑人、西班牙裔和低收入選民的力量獲勝。獲勝後，他迅速宣稱自己是“新民主黨的代言人”，並權衡了即將離任的市長比爾·德布拉西奧 (Bill de Blasio) 做出的疫苗授權、學校計劃和其他決定。

When Adams is sworn in Jan. 1, he will replace the term-limited de Blasio, whose eight-year mayoralty was defined by the coronavirus crisis, clashes over policing and an ill-fated run for president.

當亞當斯於 1 月 1 日宣誓就職時，他將接替有任期限制的白思豪，白思豪的八年市長任期由冠狀病毒危機、警務衝突和總統競選失敗決定

“The policies I ran on, they were clear,” he said outside a polling site in Brooklyn Tuesday. “It’s about being safe. It’s about working on behalf of blue-collar people.”

“我執行的政策很明確，”他週二在布魯克林的一個投票站外說。 “這是為了安全。這是關於代表藍領人士工作。”

Incoming New York mayors have faced challenges before. Ed Koch inherited a crime-ridden city on the verge of bankruptcy in 1978. Former Mayor Michael Bloomberg was nominated in a primary election scheduled on Sept. 11, 2001 and had to rebuild a city devastated by the terrorist attac

即將上任的紐約市長以前也面臨過挑戰。 1978 年，埃德·科赫 (Ed Koch) 繼承了一座瀕臨破產的犯罪猖獗的城市。 前市長邁克爾·布隆伯格 (Michael Bloomberg) 在 2001 年 9 月 11 日的初選中獲得提名，不得不重建一座被恐怖分子襲擊摧毀的城市
