It's official: Erik Dilan anounced yesterday against Nydia Velazquez.
Politicker is noting that Velazquez's new district map is more favorable for Dilan, since it includes the Hasidim in Williamsburg - a point that OP raised several times. "Mr. Dilan undoubtedly has been paying attention to the redistricting process, as Ms. Velázquez’s district became slightly more favorable to Mr. Dilan’s challenge in the recently released court-drawn map. Notably, her seat absorbed Hasidic Williamsburg where the largest sect is allied with Mr. Lopez."
Meanwhile, Hakeem Jeffries anonuced that he will go against Towns, although he doesn't live in the new district and the district is completely out of his Assembly district, and his odds there are much lower.
