Episode Details

The Brooklyn Democratic Party passed a series of rule changes last week which reformers are calling a 'power grab' by the old guard, aimed at keeping the party's existing leaders in power, despite the protest of several prominent democrats. Gwynne Hogan, senior reporter at The City Reporter, and Jeff Coltin, editor-in-chief of City & State NY, unpack the saga, and what it tells us about the role of local party chapters in the city's changing political landscape.
