Andrew Gounardes Supports Socialist “Defund the Police Mayoral Candidate – Brad Lander
Bay Ridge, Andrew Gounardes is supporting Brad Lander for mayor NYC. Gounardes’ name is on the host committee list for Lander:
Brad Lander is part of the group of politicians who wanted to defund the police. This is what Lander wrote in 2020:
It’s surprising that Andrew Gounardes is supporting a man who wanted to defund NYC’s police department as this movement hurt NYC.
Also Brad Lander is a socialist.
Like Bill de Blasio, Brad Lander has benefitted from low property taxes in Park Slope for years. Unlike de Blasio, Lander held meetings in NYC about property taxes and told people he was going to help lower property taxes. Lander didn’t do anything to help.
Senator Andrew Gounardes introduced the red light cameras to NYC. When the news revealed that Brad Lander was caught eight times by the red light cameras, Andrew Gounardes was a coward and stayed silent. (See News article)
Even in August 2024, there is talk about Lander and traffic tickets in the paper because Lander said he paid them on time and Matthew Sedacca wrote that he didn’t. (See news article)
During the Summer, Andrew Gounardes and Justin Brannan held a fundraiser for Brad Lander. I’m not sure why Brannan wasn’t on the welcome committee for Lander.
