Bay Ridge Didn’t Want Mark Treyger or Pam Harris
I went to sleep on Tuesday night and thought, “Could Bay Ridge not have seen how amazing Chris McCreight is? Did they not feel his passion to fight corruption?”
NOOOOO WAY! Voters saw it and voted for McCreight throughout Bay Ridge and Dyker Heights. They recognized that he’s one of the good guys and he won in our areas! Why is that important? Because Treyger issued a press release that 30 people supported him and this election shows that those people don’t have any influence in our community.
Kate Cucco also won in Bay Ridge and Dyker Heights!
The Brooklyn Reporter published this about Cucco winning our area:
Although Harris and Treyger had more voters come out for them in Coney Island and Bath Beach, THEY LOST BOTH BAY RIDGE and DYKER HEIGHTS. The Bay Ridge Democrats and Vinnie Gentile supported McCreight. The new Muslim Democratic Club MDCNY wanted Harris and Democrats for Change social club wanted Harris and Treyger to win. I think support from these clubs was more for their own club members to be supported, rather than for Bay Ridge’s benefit because who the heck wants an Assemblywoman who doesn’t do anything?
Here is the map where you can find the breakdown of the district if you don’t know your section.
I don’t care if you aren’t supposed to talk about the results of an election. I’m talking about them because Treyger wasn’t a gracious winner today. As the new District Leader , Treyger could have reached out and said he was interested in working with McCreight – especially after seeing McCreight won Bay Ridge and Dyker Heights. He couldn’t do that because he doesn’t know how to do the right thing and be a gentleman (or as Lee said – just be a decent person). EVEN MARTY GOLDEN WAS A GRACIOUS WINNER WHEN HE WON.
Bay Ridge saw the truth. More importantly, Bay Ridge is filled with people who want politicians who aren’t corrupt. We live in a gerrymandered district and get the short end of the stick because our neighborhood was divided in half and tossed with other neighborhoods.
The truth is out there, even if Treyger can’t say it or put it in a press release.
