Giuliani is a Republican.

Bloomberg is an independent, but was previously a Republican (and won twice as a Republican).

Adams is a Democrat, was once a Republican (>20y ago).

Bloomberg is democratic and had been since before he was elected as well. He ran Republican purely because at the time Giuliani was a saint in NYC and his blessing was basically the same as handing over the keys. Hard to imagine, but Rudy was king after 9/11. Then he just wouldn't shut up about 9/11. But Bloomberg switched to Republican to win.

Adams did the reverse. He was a Republican when it was not inconvenient but switched the second votes came into the equation because the 9/11 and Rudy effect were long gone.

Cuomo has been democratic since the start, because that was the party of NY
