Badrun Khan, a Sunnyside resident and a member of Queens Community Board 2, is running in the Democratic primary for the 14th Congressional District of New York.

She faces incumbent Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and former CNBC reporter Michelle Caruso-Cabrera.

The 14th Congressional District includes the neighborhoods of Astoria, College Point, Corona, East Elmhurst, Elmhurst, Jackson Heights, Sunnyside and Woodside. It also covers neighborhoods in the south east portion of The Bronx.

Sorry, but I don’t trust someone from Sunnyside to speak for JH and Bronx residents. Also don’t care for a former republican who moved from Trump Tower to live in Queens; neither candidate is getting my vote.
