Mamdani Fights Brooklyn Dems’ Rule Changes Seen as Anti-Voter Power Grab
TL;DR
New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani opposes Brooklyn Democratic Party chair Rodneyse Bichotte Hermelyn’s plan to expand the executive committee with dozens of new voting members ahead of the fall leadership vote, arguing the move undermines the will of voters. Reformers backed Julio Peña, while NY leaders Letitia James and Jumaane Williams urged the changes not move forward; proposals could also let former chairs vote in future elections and may eventually swell the committee to about 90 members.
