Yvette Clarke, a longtime congresswoman from Brooklyn’s 9th congressional district defeated multiple Democratic primary challengers this year.
She won her re-match against organizer Adem Bunkeddeko, who won 47% of the vote against her in 2018, and a challenge from Brooklyn councilman Chaim Deutsch.
Clarke won 62% with Adem Bunkeddeko finishing second at 18%. Deutsch received just 9.9%, only slightly ahead of Isiah James at 9.1%. In last place was Lutchi Gayot, who got just 1%.
The frum community represents about 15% of the voting age population in this Congressional District.
With the absentee ballots, Chaim will have received slightly more than 15% of the vote.
The outcome is as was and should have been expected from the get go. He had no chance!

It is unnecessary and inappropriate to mention the race of the winner. It is neither desirable nor necessary to make everything into a racial matter. Not everything is black & white.

Are you living in a cave?
What do you mean "Not everything is black & white."?
According to the media ... Everything IS "Black & White"
I'm just following the media....
Do you think Engel would have been voted out if he were Black?
Do you think Yvette would have won .. were she white?
