DescriptionMayor Bloomberg plans to back Joe Lhota for mayor if Bill de Blasio wins the Democratic nomination on Tuesday, sources have told The Post.

City Hall insiders said Hizzoner — fearing the Democratic public advocate would dismantle his 12-year legacy if elected mayor — has warmed up to the former MTA chairman and deputy to Rudy Giuliani.

The Republican Lhota said he would welcome the embrace of Bloomberg, an independent.

“Mike Bloomberg and I had a discussion back in January. He’s staying out of the primary,” Lhota said yesterday morning on Fox’s “Good Day New York.”
“I will talk to him next Tuesday night-Wednesday morning about the future and where we are going,” he added.
