Former Citigroup Vice Chairman Ray McGuire is the latest Democratic candidate to launch his campaign for mayor — with the help of some star power. But will New Yorkers want a former Wall Street executive running the city?

NY1’s Zack Fink, Juan Manuel Benitez, and Courtney Gross analyze McGuire’s campaign and what his entry into the race means for other candidates.

They also discuss the latest with the COVID-19 surge and whether the city is headed towards another lockdown.

Watch Ray McGuire’s interview on Inside City Hall here.
