I seem to recall that deBlasio was very unpopular

He was. I misremembered that he had made the mistake of having a 3rd term, but actually, term limits would have prevented him from doing so, and it was his 2nd term that was bad and reminded me of third terms by Bloomberg and Koch. He won reelection by plenty but did not have a good 2nd term.

He didnтАЩt have a third term. He was elected in 2013 and then in 2017. It wasnтАЩt until after Koch that NYC implemented term limits. Remember that Koch ran for a fourth term in 1989 but lost his primary to Dinkins.
