This could be a long shot. But I think it could finally be the coolie boi chance. My pick is Richard David. The little boi from Dundee, Mahaicony.
Bibi , Why? I hope is not because he is brown skin.
His volunteers came to my house yesterday but cannot tell me why I should vote for him. I do not buy pigs in Bags.

He joined with the LGBT community in Richmond Hill and tried desperately to close the Player's Bar even though he had no real basis for this stance.
Is he a "closet LGBTQ member"
Vish - let's give "one of our own a little support", it matters not if he is a member of the LGBTQ community or not. Richard is a good guy. And yes, He is from Dundee. His grandfather and other family members were very active in the Dundee masjid.
Is his grandfather Mahmood Shaw

Vish,
What is the reason for this ridiculous question?
Prashad likes the brown boy. He has got a good message.
As a home owner in Richmond Hill, I am opposed to Richard David
He supported Wills to downzone my community
so as one of us he did more damage to us even without entering a public office

Vish,
What is the reason for this ridiculous question?
Because he is blind to their agenda, he invoke the wroth of a Christine Quinn to support his agenda in his effort to get blood from the owner of Players Restaurant
the LGBTQ group was doing their stuff at the Players and after many hours of free drinks, someone elected to deposit some ice in the private quarter of a male looking, female acting LGBTQ member
Wars broke out on the pavement of the Players; face scratching, hair pulling and jumping on the back of a heavyset drummers Basically a storm in a teacup but Richard did not stop there
He organized a protest rally and invoke the stake for the heart, "gay discrimination and Gay bashing"
NYPD was requested repeatedly but upon review if a tape it was not acted upon
He could not stop, he called in National Gay Activists and all the local media. They read a statement of support from Quinn
But again it was a storm in a teacup, yet he wanted to shutdown a $1 million investment based on the fantasy of a few partygoers
RHEDC was opposed to his action and to steps to neutralize this misplaced, vindicative and provocative plan of action

Just for information , he does not even live in the district

IF you are so opposed to Mr. Richard David , why did you make a monetary contribution to his campaign ?
Secondly, Are you currently actively involved with Ms. Hettie Powell camp, who is an opponent to Mr, David?

He was the VP for NYCEDC for many years yet he NEVER help Richmond Hill directly or indirectly in his professional capacity
never even as an advisor
He never help us in the Liberty Ave business corridor

From what I know of the NYCEDC a mere "VP" lacks clout. In addition that agency is interested in big ticket items. Being a man of color he would have been struggling to maintain his career at that agency which favors those with strong ties to mainstream real estate interests.
Just be glad that he will bring knowledge about how the city really works, maybe more of this than any city council person that this district has had.
You fellows learned nothing from my battle with that Mujibar Keffer. You put your people first. Religion comes a distant second.

This boy Vishnu is something else, that's the reason he cannot answer my questions.
He is working for candidate Hettie , opponent to Richard David. This little prick then come on GNI and ask questions and then use this forum to try to smear Mr. Daivd.
I always maintain that that there was a valid reason why Ed, Baldeo and the others cut off his pony tail and finger his BT.
Learn something from them Ultra Orthodox jews. Put your people first. Everyone else is goy.

Is your candidate a Muslim
District 28
After being convicted of fraud and grand larceny, Ruben Wills was set to be expelled from the City Council under state law. Now that Wills is out of the picture, a few Democrats have entered the fight over the newly vacant council seat. Prior to Willsâ departure, Democratic contenders included Hettie V. Powell, an attorney who secured 33 percent of the vote in the 2013 primary, and Richard David, who has worked in the leadership of the cityâs Economic Development Corp. They have since been joined by Anthony D. Andrews Jr., the Democratic district leader for the 32nd Assembly District, and Jahi A. Rose, Willsâ former director of constituent affairs. Adrienne Adams, chairwoman of Queens Community Board 12, joined the race with an endorsement from Rep. Joe Crowley, who also serves as the Queens County Democratic Party chairman. The Queens Democratic machine had previously put its weight behind Wills, so his departure opens up a free-for-all for the seat.
The Republican race features accountant Ivan Mossop, who was endorsed by the Queens County Republican Party, and a comeback bid by Allan Jennings, who previously held the seat but was censured by the City Council when two female subordinates accused him of sexual harassment. Calls to the campaign seeking confirmation that the candidate is the same Jennings were not returned.

Thank you for coming clean that yes you are collecting or will collect from her campaign.
You are either a dunce or you are playing the fool. I do not know Mr. David s religion.
Now I beg to ask
WHAT IS WRONG IF HE IS A MUSLIM?
Vish, did Hettie promise to cook you a pot of curry goat?
Mr.David is Guyanese,suh why Vish isn't backing this guy??

This fella has worked along with the crook Ruben Wills and down zoned my community. By doing so, we cannot expand our homes to accommodate our children and our parents. Our homes have lost significant $$ value due to his action and support.
The Zoning was changed from R5 to R4
The FAR was changed from 1.25 to 0.90
He also NEVER help our Business Corridor whilst posing as a VP of NYCEDC.
He even brought his LGBTQ group to try to shut down Players Restautant on Liberty Ave
I lost property value due to his action and cannot support his for further "distruction" of my community or our businesses

Don't know if you know this but there are tons of VPs at the NYCEDC. What were his responsibilities? Did he even have an ability to help? Often community folks don't understand the mission of these places enough and assume that anyone with a title can help. That usually NOT being the case.
NYCEDC has 11 EVPs so goodness knows how many VPs that they have. The trajectory of his career suggests to me that he didn't even have the ability to swat a fly while at the NYCEDC. Those with juice move on to real estate development, or investment banking. He moved onto to social services.

Big Unions are supporting Mr. David!
We're honored to receive the endorsement of CWA District 1, one of the largest unions in the country, representing more than 150,000 workers. "This year we are pleased to support a large group of City Council incumbents who have been fighting for working people over the last four years in New York City. We are also excited about the opportunity to elect a new group of pro-worker candidates who will strengthen the Councilâs progressive bloc. We need elected officials who are committed to fight for good jobs, take on Wall Street and stand with public sector workers,â said Dennis Trainor, Vice President of the Communications Workers of America, District 1. #VoteForRichard #cd28 #1u
