NEW YORK (CMC):
A Barbadian-born, retired New York Police Department (NYPD) detective has thrown her hat in the race for the 46th New York City Council District in Brooklyn and has expressed strong confidence that she would emerge victorious.
Dr Judy D. Newton, who retired from the NYPD in 2012, told the Caribbean Media Corporation on Sunday that she’s focused on her campaign, “reaching out to voters in the district and putting a winning team together”.
The 46th District encompasses the Brooklyn neighbourhoods of Bergen Beach, Canarsie, Flatlands, Georgetown, Gerritsen Beach, Marine Park, Mill Basin, Mill Island and Sheepshead Bay.
