New York City's primary elections are heating up with early voting set to begin on June 17. The new City Council maps include notable changes, especially to parts of southern Brooklyn. HannahKliger reports.
- New York City's new City Council maps are redrawn every 10 years based on the census, and this time include notable changes, especially to parts of Southern Brooklyn.
"I did not leave the Democratic party. The Democratic party left me," Kagan explains to CBS2's Hannah Kliger. One of his opponents is Anna Belfiore-Delfaus, a mother of three, who boasts of her upbringing in Bensonhurst and Dyker Heights, and touts her longtime support for the NYPD. "It's been on the minds of so many people, people that just don't feel safe to leave their homes, to take the subways, especially the elderly," he says.This comes after a so-called"red wave" swept through parts of southern Brooklyn last year, with Republicans picking up several seats. Some even managed to unseat longtime Democratic incumbents in the State Assembly.
Belfiore-Delfaus has also faced criticism for currently living on Staten Island, and for what critics say is a lack of transparency over her employment history as a public school teacher; she hasn't been in the classroom since 2015.
