As Part V of the Optimist's public service series to his fellow Brooklynites, the following is a current list of Brooklyn's Democratic District Leaders. The majority of these district leaders do not have websites, so I have not added links to their names, except for in the cases where the District Leader holds another elective office in addition to this post.
You will notice that there are two names listed for each Assembly District. That is because each AD has both a male and female representative. For those of you who do not know what a District Leader does, check out this fine explanation from the Room Eight blog.
Some of you may also notice that with this concluding chapter of my five part series that I have neglected to list the Republican and Independence Party's District Leaders. The reason I have done so is twofold: relevance and time. Except for in the Bay Ridge area, Republicans have virtually no impact upon local politics, because the overwhelming majority of voters in Brooklyn are Democrats. The Independence Party is irrelevant everywhere in our borough.
It took quite an effort to compile a list even of the Democratic District Leaders, but since they are significant (though, albeit, largely overlooked) I felt that this was a worthwhile endeavor. Because of the relative unimportance of the Republican and Independence Parties, I decided not to bother tracking down who their District Leaders are. But, however, if someone is willing to send me a complete, up-to-date list for either of these parties, or any I have omitted to mention, I will happily add them to my blog as an addendum to this series.
Now on to the list! If you don't know in what district you live, you can find out everything you need to know by entering your address into the New York City Board of Elections' website right here.
