PODCAST: We Talk to Julia Forman, Candidate for the 26th District Council Seat

Julia Forman, running for the 26th District Council Seat

Sept. 16, 2020 By Christian Murray

At the end of next year, 11 council members in Queens will be forced to step down due to term limits.

Dozens of candidates have already come forward looking to replace them, and will be competing in next June’s Democratic primaries for those spots.

In Queens, only four council members — Barry Grodenchik, Adrienne Adams, Robert Holden and Francisco Moya — are eligible for another term. They too will be facing challengers.

We plan to speak to as many candidates running for office in Queens as possible from now through to the primaries.

Today, we speak to Dutch Kills resident Julia Forman. She is running for the 26th District Council seat currently held by Jimmy Van Bramer, who is term limited.

The 26th Council district covers Sunnyside, Woodside, Long Island City and a portion of Astoria.

zzzzz… typical Marxist issue positions and talking points. That’s the problem with these people who live by ideology and “group think”… You hear from one of them you hear from all of them. They bring no individual thinking to the world, it’s as if they never existed.
