Lester Chang spoke for the first time since state Assembly Democrats announced their effort to block him from taking over the 49th District seat in southern Brooklyn.
He admitted he previously shared a Manhattan apartment with his wife — but swore he was a lifelong Brooklyn resident who kept a dual residence at his childhood home in Midwood.
Democrats are making a stink about Chang’s residency because he voted in Manhattan last year, but his lawyer John Ciampoli said Chang voted there that day because he’s a US Navy veteran and was in the borough on official business. Sources familiar with the case later showed The Post some of Chang’s financial records that appear to confirm he met the requirement of living in Brooklyn 12 months before Election Day of this year.is set to hold a hearingIf the Assembly votes to boot Chang, Democratic Gov. Kathy Hochul could call a special election to fill the seat.
