Of the 3,976 votes cast, new Councilman Oswald Feliz wound up with 1,766 votes to second place finisher Ischia Bravo’s 1,362 votes, with 848 of the original votes becoming exhausted in Rank Choice Voting,
It was a different story in the 11th City Council race where Eric Dinowitz breezed to an easy victory, taking over for Judge Andrew Cohen. Of the 9,555 votes cast now Councilman Eric Dinowitz wound up with 5,579 to second place finisher Mino Lora’s 3,188 vote, with 788 of the original votes becoming exhausted in Rank Choice Voting.
