Great piece in the Gotham Gazette on the race to unseat Pedro Espada. Goes into a lot of good detail on the relative strength of the strongest challenger, Gustavo Rivera. Here is another interesting nugget from the piece -- the Ben Franklin Club endorsement shows a total vote of 48 people. Not bad but certainly not the powerhouse club that Assemblyman Dinowitz likes to tout? I also wonder how many of that 48 person turnout were paid staff members of the local politicos?
Warning to Jeffrey Dinowitz: Old old farts are especially vulnerable to heat-related illness. One more hot, humid day in the 90s and the Ben Franklin Club could lose half its membership
ReplyDeleteNot just half of his club's membership, but also half of his constiuents.
