Southern Brooklyn Democrats are rejoicing Tuesday as two Republican Council candidates — Brian Fox and Mark Szuszkiewicz — conceded within an hour of each other just two days into absentee ballot counting.
After trailing his Republican opponent by more than 200 votes on election night, Councilmember Justin Brannan will continue to represent City Council’s 43rd District, which encompasses Bay Ridge, Dyker Heights, Bath Beach, and parts of Bensonhurst after mail-in ballots are finalized by the city’s Board of Elections.
