    You can’t really compare this race to the New York City mayoral race. For one, Schumer is the leader of the Democrats in the senate and needs Democrats to unseat Republican senators in order for him to personally gain power. For two, the NY mayoral race was between Cuomo and Mamdani. it was not between a Democrat and a Republican.

      schumer endorsed adams in the previous race; he gets involved in mayoral races when he doesn’t have to.
