Brooklyn, NY-- Brooklyn Democratic Party Chair Rodneyse Bichotte Hermelyn issued the following statement on Nov. 8th's General Election results and projections as votes are still being counted in key races:
“The Brooklyn Democratic Party and I congratulate the apparent winners across Brooklyn and Statewide including the First female Elected NY Governor Kathy Hochul and Brooklyn’s own First Female Attorney General Tish James and Senator Chuck Schumer.
The Party galvanized strong voter turnout, as evidenced with Brooklyn leading the five boroughs in votes cast. We thank our volunteers and staff for engaging Dems across the borough through phone banking, canvassing, rallies, community events, and going door-to-door to every corner of Brooklyn reaching over 1.1 million voters.
As the largest and fastest growing borough, Brooklyn is not just culturally diverse, but politically diverse across the Democratic spectrum with many shades of Blue. This serves as a pertinent reminder that we need to continue to unify as Democrats, regardless of our differing views, in preparation for the GOP challenges ahead.”
