In reply to the discussion: NYC council member [Chi Osse] prepares Democratic primary challenge against Hakeem Jeffries [View all]Dorian Gray
(13,844 posts)I don't think that Osse has a chance. And I think the district, which is represented by the who most likely would be the next speaker of the house and all the influence that goes with that, would be insane to vote him out to get a newcomer in with no political influence.
District 8 spans Bed Stuy to Canarsie to Coney Island to parts of Bay Ridge. Osse is a city council member in good standing, and he's DSA aligned. (They have not given him any support yet.).
In the end Jeffries should WIPE THE FLOOR with him. But we will see.
My district has Lander thinking of Primarying Daniel Goldman, and I am VERY MUCH a Goldman appreciator. He's been an effective legislator and voice in the government. So that's another primary I'm not thrilled with.
