I want to get personal for a moment.

I was born and raised in Queens. I’ve organized here my entire life.

But one of my opponents (who ran for Congress in another state) is acting like I’m not from here.

She has *twice* sarcastically said to my face, “Welcome to Astoria.”

It was an honor to March with the great @ndncollective & demand that our leaders fight for a just democracy for all.

A just democracy INCLUDES reckoning with our past. It was an honor to carry the #Landback sign.

✊🏿Landback = Black & Indigenous solidarity at the ballot & beyond

Hey guys! Just want to remind y'all that early voting for the primary will begin on Saturday, June 12th. You will be able to rank your top 5 candidates in terms of preference. We encourage you to look up the closest polling site to you and have all the necessary documents ready!

[GenVote @ Queens College @GenVoteqc]

With NYC elections coming up. It's important to know the different ways you can vote! They include Voting By Mail, Early Voting, and Election Day Voting. With so many choices it's important to have a voting plan ready! Be sure to have all of your necessary information and vote!

[GenVote @ Queens College @GenVoteqc]

Happy to announce our involvement in this event! Join this workshop to get a thorough understanding of the Ranked-Choice Voting system being implemented and how it works. Can't wait to see y'all on Thursday!

[GenVote @ Queens College @GenVoteqc]

If a candidate has reached 50% or more votes they automatically win. However, if no candidate reaches this threshold the process will continue until the number of options is dwindled down to two and the winner of that election becomes mayor. Don't forget to come out and vote !!

[GenVote @ Queens College @GenVoteqc]

Hey, y'all! As we prepare for the NYC Citywide Primary, Ranked Choice Voting will be used for the first time. In these elections, NYC voters will rank their favorite candidates from 1-5 with the candidate with the fewest votes being automatically eliminated.

[GenVote @ Queens College @GenVoteqc]

Your early voting polling site may differ from the one used on Election Day. Again the Ranked Choice Voting system will allow you to rank up to 5 candidates in order of preference. We are excited to announce this in coordination with @NYCvotes,@cunyvotes. #NYCVotes,#CUNYVotes.

[GenVote @ Queens College @GenVoteqc]

Greetings! We are excited to bring you all information about the special elections occurring in the NYC City Council districts of Bronx 11th and Bronx 15th. These elections are incredibly exciting because they will be the first in NYC to use Ranked-Choice Voting.

[GenVote @ Queens College @GenVoteqc]

You can vote early, in-person, or by mail. To check your poll site and request your absentee ballot, visit https://t.co/KHwh2hxO8s. All registered voters in these two districts can vote early in-person starting Saturday March 13.

[GenVote @ Queens College @GenVoteqc]

We couldn't be more excited to announce that the QC GenVote team is in the Spring 2021 CUNY Peer to Peer Program !! Peer to Peer is an initiative @NYCVotes and @cunycivics for CUNY student organizations to mobilize the vote on their campus and educate their local communities.

As a high school teacher, it was difficult to find colleges that had strong disability support services for our kids. We need funding to support college students with disabilities bc they have every right to services that support their learning.

@TweetBenMax Are there any actions she is prepared to make as Mayor of NYC about the taxi medallion crisis?

[Felicia Singh 🌻 @FeliciaSinghNYC]

আমি একজন ট্যাক্সি চালকের সন্তান। আমরা ট্যাক্সি মেডালিয়নের লোন পরিশোধ করতে সক্ষম না হওয়ায়, আমার বাবাকে ব্যাংকরাপ্টসির (দেওলিয়া) জন্য ফাইল করতে হয়। গত শুক্রবার, ব্যাংকরাপ্টসি কোর্ট থেকে আমাদের বাড়ির উপর 'বিক্রয় হবে' চিহ্ন দেওয়া হয়।

[GenVote @ Queens College @GenVoteqc]

The medallion crisis has affected so many, but no actions have been taken, this is heartbreaking. We stand with Felicia and her family, and the thousands of families affected by this crisis.

[Felicia Singh 🌻 @FeliciaSinghNYC]

I am the daughter of a taxi driver. Due to our inability to pay our taxi medallion loan, my father had to file for bankruptcy. This past Friday, the bankruptcy court put a “For Sale” sign on our house. There is already an offer on our home, and the trustees are ready to sell.
