Chicago bound: New York hits the DNC

Off Topic/On Politics

Much of the New York political action is happening some 800 miles away from City Hall in Chicago at the Democratic National Convention. New Yorkers were making headlines there — from Gov. Kathy Hochul to House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries. NY1 investigative reporter Courtney Gross, political reporter Bobby Cuza and statehouse reporter Bernadette Hogan discuss the convention in the Second City and which elected officials made the most of their time in the spotlight.

Mayor Eric Adams also went to Chicago this week, but he did not arrive until the third day of the convention. The “Off Topic” team looks at the mayor’s small part in such a high-profile political event.
