New York City Primary Tuesday,
September 13, 2005
 

The PSC urges you to vote and to support these candidates endorsed by the Delegate Assembly of the PSC: 

The PSC has not yet made a recommendation in the Mayoral Primary but strongly recommends Norman Siegel for City Advocate. He knows both PSC and CUNY issues very well and does speak out for the union and the University.  As academic freedom continues to be undermined by CUNY administrators, it is essential to have a strong voice for unpopular views in city government.
