Registering As A Republican Is Foolhardy

By Chaskel Bennett

‎I'm not here to argue that you ought to support Democrats over Republicans. You can vote for any candidate you desire in the general election; your party registration does not affect that. But we need to ensure that the more moderate Democrats have support within their party and are not driven out by the radicals. Do not delay. The fact is: Your community needs you now more than ever! I strongly urge my fellow New Yorkers to immediately register as Democrats.
