White Plains Democratic Party Calls for Bradley's Ouster

White Plains Mayor Adam BradleyThe calls continue for White Plains Mayor Adam Bradley to step down.

Tonight, the White Plains Democratic Committee approved a non-binding vote of no-confidence calling on him to resign after he was convicted of domestic abuse charges involving his wife Fumiko Bradley.

The panel voted 42-19 in favor of Bradley's ouster.

While the move is not binding, officials are hoping the no confidence vote will continue to put pressure on the convicted Mayor and at the same time send a message to the Governor, who, at this point, is the only one who is able to technically remove Bradley from office.

Earlier, the White Plains Common Council voted on a resolution calling for Bradley to step down. Bradley then refused, saying he is innocent and plans to appeal his conviction.

The members of the Common Council have written a letter to Governor Cuomo urging him to intervene and remove Bradley from office.

Other lawmakers have called for Bradley to resign, including Congresswoman Nita Lowey and longtime friend and Assemblywoman Amy Paulin.
