21st City Council Special Election

Julissa Ferreras, former Monserrate Chief of staff as well as Chairwoman of a non-profit that received $250,000 of slush funds from her office, won the special election to fill her boss's seat. Monserrate became the State Senator last November, and has had a scandal involving alleged beating his girlfriend with a drinking glass @ 3AM then driving her past several hospitals bringing her to LIJ hospital near the Nassau border. There was a dearth of talent on the ballot but in my humble opinion the worst candidate won.
