March 10, 2025Richie Barsamian for NYC Council – District 47
‘
Richie Barsamian is running for NYC Council to represent Bay Ridge Dyker Heights, Bath Beach, Gravesend, Coney Island and Sea Gate.
His focus points are fantastic:
When Richie initially announced he was running for office, even people that went to school with him from elementary school wrote nice things about him.
One of the things Ritchie stressed was that he wanted to hear from everyone. He knows our current councilman doesn’t listen to everyone. Ritchie wants everyone to be able to share their ideas.
The primary election is on June 24, 2025. Early voting for the primary is from June 14th to June 22nd.

Coney Island residents have stood up and said that a casino will hurt their community.
On Monday, March 10th at 6:00 pm, there will be a ULURP meeting to determine if the streets will be changed for a casino. Although the people have said no, politicians like Justin Brannan were lobbied and is not standing with the people.
The developer desiring a casino has been in Coney Island for years and has done very little in the community. This developer could have done a lot more to show he was serious about adding value to the community.

March 8, 2025We Can’t Celebrate Women’s Day When Four Women Were Raped in Our Area Since 1/1/25
Politicians made cute graphics about International Women’s Day or Woman’s History Month.
We don’t need cute graphics.
We need politicians who can speak to the police and public about rape. Are the rapists being caught and arrested? Why are there no descriptions of any of these men being released to the public?
You can see the statistics here. When I shared this statistic to Senator Gounardes, he censored me on Facebook. Andrew Gounardes doesn’t want you to see the rape statistics for our community.
The post shows no comments because Andrew Gounardes does not want to speak up for women and believes in censorship.
