Bill de Blasio said he may drop out of the 2020 presidential race if he fails to qualify for October’s Democratic debate
“Of course it was disappointing not to get into September,” de Blasio said Wednesday. “But I fully gathered that October was the same standards, but with a month more to achieve them.”De Blasio said he’s still holding out hope for a viral moment to lift his campaign out of the doldrums.
“People go from unheard of to totally famous in 72 hours in America now,” he said. “So a candidate like me, who's not that well known yet — you know, ask me in 72 hours, right? Something might change.”In his quest to amass small donors who would help him qualify for the debates, de Blasio has become ensnared in aEmails and fliers circulated encouraging donations to de Blasio, and claiming the mayor promised to facilitate construction of a hotly-disputed synagogue project in return.
De Blasio said Wednesday he did not make any such promises and had no knowledge of the synagogue project until he read the POLITICO story. “I was not aware of the issue to begin with,” he said. “If someone did forge that, that’s thoroughly disgusting and unacceptable. No, none of that ever came to my attention. And I would never make a decision on anything but the merits anyway.”
The two sides within the Williamsburg Orthodox community have been sparring over the property for the past decade, and emails produced through a freedom of information request show high-ranking city officials have been made aware of the issue.
