NEW YORK - The Democratic primary race for Queens district attorney finally came to end an end on Tuesday with political newcomer Tiffany Cabán, a progressive backed by U.S. Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, conceding victory to Melinda Katz, the establishment favorite candidate.
“We terrified the Democratic establishment,” Cabán said on Twitter. “There is still so much work to be done here in Queens — and you better believe I’m going to keep fighting.” She promised to close New York’s Rikers Island jail without replacing it, to decriminalize prostitution and to end cash bail for all criminal offenses.
