It was suggested that I post this here as well as DG even though I don't really consider this my stomping grounds.

I want to give both my endorsements for Tuesday's primary as well as the endorsements from some of the organizations I respect. First my endorsements:

Brooklyn's 1st Civil Court Seat: Devin Cohen

Still the longest of longshots, but one can always hope. Change!
