Brooklyn Bar Talk: A Public Advocate Forum



Last night, the Brooklyn Young Democrats hosted a candidate forum in the little-noticed race for New York City Public Advocate.  The forum featured four Democratic candidates; Council Member Letitia James, former Deputy Public Advocate Reshma Saujani, State Senator Daniel Squadron and Cathy Guerriero, and was moderated by Colin Campbell, senior editor of The New York Observer and kingpin of Politicker.com.

The forum was held at a bar in Downtown Brooklyn – our apologies for the poor lighting.
