The New York City Campaign Finance Board has once again denied millions of dollars in matching funds to Mayor Eric Adams' struggling efforts to keep his job.

As he and Eric Adams compete for financial support from New York’s deep-pocketed business community, Andrew Cuomo is returning to the Hamptons on Friday for his first large-scale campaign fundraiser in the wealthy enclave since relaunching his mayoral bid.

"Why Brooklyn?" Adams asked the crowd on Avenue T, near East 58th Street, "Because Brooklyn is the place I was born ... it was the place that shaped and made me."
