Brooklyn, you may not be following local politics, bc who can deal with human sausage right now :p But the Democratic Party is preventing trans, non binary, gender fluid people from holding political office - and we need your help. Thread. #IncludeAllGenders @RepYourBlock
County Committee (which I& #39;m on) & State Cmte are where decisions of the Brooklyn Democratic Party get made. Judicial seats, control of the Board of Elections, noms for State Legislators in special elections -- major shit happens. State law assigns the Cmte seats as male & female.
Last week, the Brooklyn Board of Elections (among other scurrilous moves) denied 6 people the right to run for County Committee because their genders don& #39;t tick that binary box. The candidates took their case to court on Thursday and we& #39;re waiting to hear. Please help now! By:
