Brooklyn Democratic Party leader Rodneyse Bichotte Hermelyn is vigorously supporting Sabrina Gates in her campaign against Council Member Lincoln Restler, who is running for a third term. Gates has previously lost to Restler in a competitive primary and is now the only challenger on the Democratic ballot for the upcoming election. Despite challenges related to her campaign's signature collection process, a court ruled in her favor. While Restler has substantial fundraising advantages, Gates aims to leverage Bichotte Hermelyn's backing to enhance her campaign efforts and voter support.
Bichotte Hermelyn is fully backing Gates, viewing her as a leader who knows building bridges and is ready to challenge Restler's re-election bid.
This election won’t be the first time Restler and Gates face off; they previously competed in the 2021 Democratic primary for the same seat.
