NEW YORK — One hundred and four votes — that’s what separates Councilman Bill Perkins, a veteran of city and state politics, and Kristin Richardson Jordan, a third generation Harlemite and a vocal progressive who is a newcomer to politics and leads in this still too close to call race for the City Council's 9th District.
"One hundred and four votes up and victorious in District 9," Richardson Jordan told NY1 in a Tuesday interview. “I am just very excited and very humbled by that.”
