I became aware of, and very much in opposition to Marte when I looked up his comments about The City of Yes, and his previous opposition to new construction. He has actively criticized and campaigned against new housing development, citing things like “environmental racism” as to why.
He is unashamedly working in the interests of long time residents against the interests of the city and more recent residents as a whole. I honestly find his opposition to housing (as his apparent core beliefs should definitely be pro-development) as disgusting.
I also happened to move into his district 4-ish months ago and have already registered my permanent address in his district. What can I do to (in terms of low-effort things like voting or registering to vote in a specific primary - I have a lot of other things in life going on) reduce his chances of reelection in 2025? I take it as a given that voting Republican or third party is not a meaningful action.
I love the ambition here! Before now I hadn't considered electoral votes to be a an argument in favor of more housing, but I'm on board with the premise
