Reform advocate unseats incumbent prosecutor in Westchester County primary

[RandySF]

On Thursday, more than three weeks after New York held its June 23 Democratic primary, Westchester County District Attorney Anthony Scarpino conceded defeat to progressive challenger Mimi Rocah. With 41,000 votes tabulated, Rocah, who is a former federal prosecutor, leads Scarpino 68-32. Westchester County is a reliably blue county in most contests and Rocah will be the heavy favorite in November against Republican Bruce Bendish, who lost to Scarpino 70-30 four years ago.

1. Great that Mimi Rocha is

winning. I am, however, still having a difficult time forgiving her for being too positive about Billy Barr. Guess she is such a plus for us, I can feel myself melting into a forgiveness puddle.
