VOTE: ELECTION 2020 INSPIRATION

Harlem Bespoke:  The statue of Frederick Douglass at 110th Street on 8th Avenue has provided a little bit of voting inspiration this week and some much needed unity in the city.  Everyone now is waiting the day after the national election to see if there will be a new president in place for the next term and a lot of anxiety happened last night because swing states were not counting absentee ballots until today.  Same day voting tend to go towards the red while mail-in votes lean toward blue and thus a better idea of the final outcome should happen later tonight.

Rep. Charles Rangel made history in the1970 Congressional election by defeating Adam Clayton Powell Jr but now the time has come for the next generation of politicians to step up.  Rangel is retiring after a historic run in Congress and local residents will be voting today to see who will be representing upper Manhattan.  Keith Wright has been endorsed by Rangel and appears to be one of the prime candidates for the open seat but recent shifts in demographics could bring a different sort of change to Harlem.
