Last Minute Public Advocate Roundup
On this special election day, Brigid Bergin, WNYC's City Hall and politics reporter, and Ben Max, executive editor of Gotham Gazette and co-host of the Max & Murphy podcast, share information to help listeners decide who to vote for in this very crowded race for public advocate.
"The fact that you didn’t have more than one caller mention the same [public advocate] candidate's name, goes to show anyone who is listening… they should absolutely go to the polls because their vote will absolutely count," says @brigidbergin.

The next public advocate would be mayor should BdB run for president.

"It is a very real possibility, we have Bill de Blasio traveling around the country this point promoting his progressive ideas," says @brigidbergin.
No matter who you vote for, vote! You don't need to be registered with a party to vote in today's special election for NYC's next public advocate.
