Primary Day, which is June 27, is almost here in New York City with every City Council seat up for grabs in this fall’s general election. While ranked-choice voting will be used in any council primary with three or more candidates, Mayor Eric Adams sounded critical of the process. NY1’s Zack Fink, Juan Manuel Benítez and Courtney Gross weigh in on some races, and why they think the mayor seems to oppose the ranked-choice process.

After that, the city’s Rent Guidelines Board approved increasing rent-stabilized leases in New York City; one-year leases will go up by 3%, while two-year leases will increase 2.75% for the first year and 3.2% for the second year. The “Off Topic/On Politics” team takes a look at this decision and how it will affect both tenants and landlords.
