Show notes:
Tuesday is Election Day, and there’s still time to find your ballot and voting station here, and to read THE CITY’s explainers about the judges at the bottom of your ballot and what the race is all about, and its closing day report on the handful of hot contests around the city.
It’s also the beginning of our year-end fundraising campaign. If you like what you’re hearing and reading please head to thecity.nyc/give to pitch in if you can, ideally with a monthly donation, or even to make a special one-time gift if you’re already a recurring donor.
As to the unfolding news about the mayor, the feds and the Turks, read our coverage of the raid itself, the people working for a New York City engineering firm tied to the government in Ankara who say they didn’t make the donations to the Adams campaign that went out in their names, the firm with the same CEO that got city workers busted for taking bribes, and more.
Plus, a wild story at The Messenger about police officers visiting the home of Adams’ fundraiser the day before the raid, in what the NYPD is dubiously saying was a standard “wellness check” after the FBI called Internal Affairs.
