Three LGBTQ political clubs in New York City are denouncing mayoral hopeful Shaun Donovan for his cross-endorsement of Bronx borough president candidate Fernando Cabrera in light of the city lawmaker’s history of anti-LGBTQ remarks and votes.
Cabrera only endorsed Donovan as his number two candidate — behind Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams — in the race for mayor, while Donovan outright endorsed Cabrera for Bronx borough president, calling him the “future borough president.”
