Voters citywide are casting ballots today in the primaries. UESers have to choose among 7 (!) City Council candidates. We’ll be updating you all day on the latest from the neighborhood 😊
City Council candidate @JulieMenin, campaigning on East 78th St, says her experience in city govt is what is needed on the #UES post-COVID.
Tricia Shimamura (@Tricia4NYC) is talking with voters near the polling site at York and 78th - just a few blocks from her apt: “I’ve been local forever,” she said.
At PS 290 on East 82nd, City Council candidate Kim Moscaritolo (@kimmosc) says she’s running on LOTS of coffee ☕️ this AM (common theme!). Her final pitch to voters: Her POV as a former reporter means she’ll bring a “journalist’s eye” to govt.
Just caught up with City Council candidate @RebeccaLamorte before she cast her ballot at MS 114 on East 91st Street — where she was rocking some Primary Day essentials: Large coffee ✅ VOTE face mask ✅
