b'No mayor is an island unto themself. They have to work with City Council. They also have to work with the governor and state legislators in Albany which wields tremendous power over the city. \\n\\nIn our election night special, City Councilmember-elect Alexa Aviles and State Senator Jabari Brisport join us to talk about how they see things going with the new city government under a Mayor Adams. Alexa Aviles won the Democratic primary in June in District 38 in South Brooklyn and had no opponent on today\\u2019s ballot. Jabari Brisport won a Central Brooklyn State Senate seat in 2020 and has had a very busy first year in the legislature. They are both democratic socialists who ran for office as champions of the working class.'
