Westchester County Executive George Latimer sent Rep. Jamaal Bowman packing from Congress Tuesday night, easily winning the 16th District’s Democratic primary over the far-left “Squad” member.– a race which pitted pro-Bowman groups like Justice Democrats and the Working Families Party against an alliance of moderates turned off by the incumbent’s stances, mainly on Israel.
“George Latimer’s victory and Jamaal Bowman’s defeat proves in dramatic fashion that being pro-Israel is not just wise policy, but also smart politics,” Mark Mellman, President of Democratic Majority for Israel, a pro-Israel group, wrote in a statement.The Teach New York Coalition/Westchester United — a group affiliated with the Orthodox Jewish Union — helped mobilize congregants at three dozen synagogues in Westchester to vote in the primary.
On Dec. 7, Bowman became the 27th House member to be censured by his colleagues — and only the fifth so far this century — after pulling a fire alarm in a Capitol Hill office building Sept. 30 in order to delay a vote to avert a government shutdown.
