Corey Johnson Doesn’t Support Women in Brooklyn
Corey Johnson also endorsed Ethan Lustig-Elgrably, without even meeting with Dr. Mathylde Frontus. Johnson claims to support women and tweets about women in government, but Johnson couldn’t even take ten minutes to meet with Dr. Frontus and hear why Moms Demand Action endorsed her over Ethan Lustig-Elgrably.
Johnson likes to tweet about supporting women, but his actions don’t match his words.
Or maybe it’s just South Brooklyn is an area of NYC that just doesn’t matter to Speaker CoJo?
Here we have Dr. Frontus, a very qualified woman with an impressive background. Dr. Frontus has a plan to make the NYC Assembly more transparent, but for some reason Johnson is ghosting Dr. Frontus and endorsing a candidate who couldn’t shine Dr. Frontus’ shoes. Ethan Lustig-Elgrably knows he hasn’t been there for the community – after he left his paid positing in Mark Treyger’s office, he didn’t continue to serve the community. Senator Savino of the IDC is funding Ethan’s campaign both directly and indirectly through District Leaders. Ethan’s campaign manager also worked for the head of the IDC.
Days ago, I asked Johnson about his endorsement on Twitter – neither of his accounts responded.
Sadly, the Brooklyn Borough President, Eric Adams also endorsed without meeting with Dr. Frontus. When asked about his endorsement, Eric Adams replied that he endorsed Ethan because he was asked. Adams was very defensive about being questioned on the endorsement. See here
