Ousted Senator Chu Goes on Television
Since Iwen Chu lost the senate election, she has repeated in several interviews that the homeless shelter is a city issue. No, it isn’t.
NYC informed Iwen Chu in writing about the homeless shelter in November 2023, so she could share that information with the community. (See letter) Iwen Chu didn’t share the information.
Chu was voted out by her community 55% to 44% (usually that doesn’t happen to incumbents).
When election season came around this year, that’s when Iwen wanted to talk about the homeless shelter. By then, it was too late – she lost touch with the community.
People remembered Iwen Chu pushed her friend from Queens for NYC Council, instead of supporting Susan Zhuang last year. (Info)
Iwen Chu ran a negative campaign against Steve Chan because she thought she could win by playing politics. Steve Chan’s tenants put out the truth. (Info) After a dirty campaign, you don’t go on television.
I don’t understand Iwen’s reason for going on television now. Why didn’t someone on her staff tell her to sit this one out?
Hugs,
