1199 and the Carl Andrews Seat

If it didn't already, the open senate seat in Carl Andrews' district now has a clear frontrunner.

Eric Adams, the co-founder of 100 Blacks in Law Enforcement Who Care, just picked up the support of 1199.

Adams, who has flirted with running for public office in the past, already has the backing of the Brooklyn party organization and has (I believe) the most money on hand of any of the candidates.

He's in the race against, among others, Anthony Alexis, who Rock Hackshaw hoped might be able to "make history" by becoming the first Trinidadian elected to office in New York.
