CYNTHIA ASKS RITCHIE TORRES TO EXPLAIN
HOUSING INCONSISTENCIES
BRONX – Cynthia Thompkins implores the local Bronx media to ask
Ritchie Torres to explain how he can claim he is a candidate of the people and a
public housing advocate while simultaneously accepting hundreds of thousands of
dollars from the real estate developer super-PAC “Jobs for New York.”
The New York Daily News
recently ran a story that quoted the following: “It’s disgusting that this is
happening. The money is a corrupting
influence on anyone who is running for office.” – Jaron Benjamin, executive
director of the Met Council on Housing. (http://www.nydailynews.com/
“Ritchie Torres is taking the
script from the Tea Party and accepting hundreds of thousands of dollars from
real estate tycoons who want to make sure the housing status quo stays in
place. Housing is not affordable and the
people funding “Jobs for New York” are about as interested in making housing
affordable as Ritchie Torres is in running an honest campaign. In reality, both Torres and “Jobs for New
York” are interested in only two things: protecting their own interests and
advancing their own agenda,” said Ms. Thompkins.

"protecting their own interests and advancing their own agenda,” said Ms. Thompkins."
Thompkins is doing the same thing by not talking about being gay, constantly using her "African American roots" to sway voters, and pretending her neighborhood groups are about protecting the Bronx when in fact it was initially about her being scared as shiite when she heard her first Bronx gunshot.
