New Yorkers cast votes at polling site in New Rochelle
Six DSA-backed incumbents and challengers are trying to expand the socialist footprint in New York state’s Legislature during Tuesday’s primaries.
Notably, the Brooklyn-based race between moderate incumbent Stefani Zinerman and challenger Eon Huntley has drawn the attention of House Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries and state Attorney General Letitia James. “The people who are voters here are legacy brownstone homeowners,” said Lupe Todd, a spokesperson for Zinerman. “Those folks are going to vote for Zinerman, who has an understanding of the district.”The bigwigs’ backing — besides helping Jeffries try to avoid having a DSA lawmaker represent him in his Bed-Stuy state Assembly district — also exposes a divide between moderate, mostly pro-Israel Democrats and their lefty, pro-Palestinian counterparts.
