Tiffany Cabán, the progressive public defender whose bid to become Queens district attorney was backed by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, declared victory in the Democratic primary on Tuesday, though the New York race was yet to be called by The Associated Press and results are not expected to be finalized for several days.
Rory Lancman, who dropped out of the race last week and endorsed Katz, still received 1,168 votes -- less than the difference between Katz and Cabán. "This race is going to have an immediate and profound effect on the lives of the 2.3 million people in Queens, but I also do see it as having a big national impact," Cabán told ABC News in an interview last week."There's a real opportunity to be a model for what criminal justice reform looks like, especially in larger urban areas."
Oh, Ms. Katz can't believe she lost to a Latina! A lesbian Latina, at that! OMG! We must do a recount! NOT!!!
Please let's all do paper ballots the old way. If the G2 summit gave the window into Trumps attitude. He has the Russians still helping him. Since he did not put any measures to stop the election fraud
This is a sign: THE END IS NEAR.
No wonder taxpaying New Yorkers are leaving the city in droves with uber liberals getting elected.
That should be the kiss of death
Criminals rejoicing.
Anyone endorsed by A O-C has to be a good candidate.
7% voter turnout for eligible voters in Queens County. New York City is falling asleep at the wheel — a bunch of Kim Foxx’s are about to start getting elected as DAs.
You people are sick, I'm sure she has a list of qualifications and accomplishments, but none of that matters at all to you, I mean you introduce her as 'Queer, Latina progressive' because that is all you care about. I imagine she is proud of all her hard work, that you ignore
Great! Another prosecutor who will refuse to prosecute. And these people think this is a good deal in these districts.
Definitely recount and check finances right out of the gate!
🤣
I love that she was backed by Bernie, AOC, Linda Sarsour yet they make it seem like a 'grass root' election. No, she had millionaires and politicians behind her. That's the opposite of grass root.
Recount this 🖕🏽
