What an asshole. His constituents elected him as a Democrat, and now he’s screwing them by making himself less effective by joining the powerless minority.

NYC should just have nonpartisan ranked choice elections like a bunch of big cities out west do. Politicians end up having to be a lot more clear about what their ideas are when they don't have a simple label to run on.

I’m not a fan of this but he (1) didn’t get any committee and (2) he’s gotten pretty shafted in redistricting. He’s making a basic calculation that caucusing as a Democrat isn’t helping him at all.
Either he stays a Dem and runs against Brennan in the primary, or runs as a Rep and maybe stands a chance.
He’s a sitting Council Member; he’ll still have discretionary funds.
