After Grueling Late Night Meeting, Brooklyn Democrats Approve Party Reforms
The new rules represent a significant structural reform to the party.

After a punishing virtual meeting that lasted nearly 13 hours and was filled with delays, technical problems, miscounted votes, and accusations of impropriety, the Brooklyn Democratic Party voted early Thursday morning to enact new rules that reformers said would make the party more transparent and accountable.
The rules, long sought by New Kings Democrats (NKD) and other progressive political clubs, create new oversight requirements for the party’s troubled finances, add a second yearly meeting of the party’s rank-and-file County Committee, establish clearer meeting procedures and reform a byzantine proxy voting system that enabled party bosses to wield immense power over the decision-making processes.
