Yet another Brooklynite in top office? NY Attorney General race heats up
Brooklyn is home to the Mayor, Senate Majority Leader, and nearly all top seats in NY. Many, including NY Attorney General Tish James, are vying for Governor, and now there’s a power vacuum for NYS AG, and Brooklyn native Maria Vullo threw her hat in the ring today via a press release. Vullo, the former head of the state’s powerful Financial Services Department, joins a field of 3 Dems and 2 GOP contenders, among many rumored aspirants.

SCOTUS looks inclined to undermine Roe V. Wade, and Brooklyn fights back.
