My Predictions for Tomorrow’s Election – #CD43
I’ve been left two comments asking me for my predictions for CD#43. I’m not a political expert guys, but I’ll throw my two cents in.
For the Democrats – Justin Brannan. El-Yateem, Kevin Peter Carroll and Nancy Tong are going to make a showing in the election (and in that order). I don’t think El-Yateem understands he would be working for this community and not “fighting Trump.” Brannan has served this community for years (not just for a few months) and he ran a fair election (he could have gone negative and squashed his opponents – he didn’t). Even Kevin Peter Carroll ran a very negative campaign at the end, which many people were surprised to see.
For the Republicans – Either Quaglione or McCabe
- John Quagione – If he wins, it is because of Marty.
- Liam McCabe – He had some decent ideas on home conversions, but he may not have gotten them out early enough for people to hear them. Dyker Heights has a lot of support for him though.
- Lucretia – She came off very sincere and likable. Lucretia said she doesn’t have the Republican Party’s support. Females in the Republican Party should embrace her as she’s a good speaker and she connected to the community. I don’t like Lucretia’s support for charter schools, but all of them are supporting that on the Republican line.
- Bob Capano – Capano ran a poor campaign because he doesn’t know the area anymore and he wanted to ride on Trump’s coattail. Capano scapegoated problems onto a Muslim resident, rather than focusing on the election. Good men don’t do that. He was the only candidate who didn’t have a profile in the voter’s guide because he was focused on sending out press releases pointing the finger at El-Yateem.

September 10, 2017Holy Cross Greek Festival – September 2017
The annual Holy Cross Greek Festival in Bay Ridge will take place on September 21st to 24th. (Yes, it looks like they have thrown in a Thursday this year — Maybe that will change when they date gets closer?)
*This is one of my favorite events in Bay Ridge! The food, seeing hundreds of people I know and the Fall vibe of this outdoor festival are amazing!
I know the people who live around the Greek school don’t like it because parking is awful and on some streets, you have to go down the block backwards. But this is one awesome Bay Ridge event.
The festival is very well run because it’s hosted by the parents.
