Politics Bushwick's Democratic Assembly Candidate Endorsed By Conservatives
Posted by Henry Stewart on Tue, Jul 26, 2011 at 2:45 PM
"Any candidate accepting money from a known slumlord is a disgrace," a tenants-rights advocate told the News. (Assemblyman Dov Hikind has also accepted campaign contributions from this known slumlord, the News reports.) "I think it's deplorable, especially in a neighborhood like that in a district like that with all of the problems of people trying to stay in their homes and avoid displacement."
Espinal is not running unopposed. The special election has turned into a three-way race, pitting the Democrat against Jesus Gonzalez, who's on the Working Families ticket, and Darryl Towns' sister Deidra Towns (also Congressman Ed Towns' daughter), who's running on the Community First line.

If I still lived in the area I would definitely vote for him! I also see the horrible BIAS of the author of this article. "Marriage Equality" should be "Marriage DESTRUCTION" and "abortion rights' should be "Right to LIFE"! The slumlord allegations are also a distortion!
