Candidates in two competitive Manhattan City Council contests cross-endorsed each other last week right before the start of early voting this weekend.
And in the 1st District, which covers lower Manhattan neighborhoods like Chinatown and the Financial District, candidates Susan Lee and Ursila Jung are also encouraging voters to rank one another number two, as a strategy to overcome the incumbent council member, Christopher Marte. Lee and Jung are both moderates who align on many issues.
“If we agree on many of the issues, there’s no reason why we shouldn’t rank the other person second choice,” Lee said, during a PoliticsNY. “So when I go to the ballot box … on Primary Day, I will rank Ursila Jung second choice.” Early voting continues through next Sunday, June 25, and Election Day is June 27.
