In a luxury apartment in Trump World Tower in Manhattan near the United Nations, a group of two dozen or so lawyers and civic leaders gathered this spring at the home of Mitchell Draizin, a financier and prominent Democratic donor. The group, he said, was searching for a candidate to defeat Mayor Eric Adams, “somebody to manage and have the city progress.” And for that evening, Scott Stringer, the city’s former comptroller, had their ear. “He’s obviously not the most charismatic person. Perhaps Adams is charismatic, but look where it got us,” Mr. Draizin said in an interview. “Look at the M.T.A., look at the garbage, look at the shoplifting and the migrant crisis.”Similar scenes are playing out across the city, with Democratic supporters being courted by Mr. Adams, Mr. Stringer and others interested in running in next June’s mayoral primary.
