Now that New York Mayor Bill de Blasio has stamped a tentative expiration date on his long-shot presidential campaign, some New Yorkers are wondering whether the Democrat will recommit himself to leading the nation’s largest city or spend his last two years in office nursing grievances and seeking new distractions. De Blasio failed to make the cut for the September Democratic debate and said Wednesday that it would be “tough to conceive of continuing” if he doesn’t qualify for the next round in October. The New York Post reported that de Blasio, according to records, spent only seven hours at City Hall in May, the month he announced he was entering the presidential race.
