City Councilman Costa Constantinides is backing Donovan Richards, the current Queens borough president, for reelection.
Constantinides, who ran against Richards for the position in last year’s election, announced his endorsement of Richards on Friday, March 19.
“Donovan Richards has always fought for Queens residents, and I have been proud to work with him to ensure a sustainable greener future for our borough,” Constantinides said. “Since taking office in December, he has quickly gotten to work to take on the issues facing Queens and delivering on the promises he made. I am confident that he will continue that record of accomplishment and I am proud to endorse his campaign for Queens Borough President.”
Constantinides, who represents Council District 22, and Richards, the former City Councilman for District 31, both chaired the Council’s Committee on Environmental Protection at different times during their respective terms.
