Council Member Antonio Reynoso has picked up an endorsement from Queens State Senator John Liu in his push to become the next Brooklyn Borough President.
Liu represents a district that includes neighborhoods like Flushing and Whitestone that are far from Brooklyn. But the backing of the Senator, who was born in Taiwan and moved to New York with his family at age five, could give Reynoso a boost amongst this borough’s Asian communities, which make up over 12% of Brooklyn’s population.
Indeed, Reynoso’s campaign said the pair plan to formally announce the endorsement today at a noon press event in Sunset Park, home to Brooklyn’s Chinatown.
