With just weeks to go until New York City’s June 27 primary — and early voting set for June 14 through June 22 — the race for City Council District 48 is drawing increased attention, as two Republican incumbents face off in one of the city’s most closely watched intra-party matchups.
Incumbent Inna Vernikov is facing a challenge from former Council Member Ari Kagan in the south Brooklyn district, which includes Sheepshead Bay, Brighton Beach, Manhattan Beach, Homecrest and parts of Midwood and Gravesend.
