27 early endorsees for this year’s elections from a group whose mission is to maintain and expand the council’s women-majority.
“This slate of 27 women in 26 districts includes 23 incumbents, four non-incumbents, four women who were the first to represent their districts … three brand new moms, 13 mothers and some of those mothers are also grandmothers,” said Jessica Haller, the group’s executive director, during a news conference in Foley Square Thursday afternoon.
“That historic election proved pivotal in delivering real results for communities across New York City,” Gonzalez said. “That’s why this cycle we are unapologetically leaning into ranked-choice voting and investing early in our endorsements. Because we understand the power of organizing and organizing early for women, and women of color, [seeking] elected office.”
