“#Tali Weinstein concedes Manhattan DA race to Alvin Bragg<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n

Alvin Bragg, a former federal prosecutor, app<\/a>eared poised to become the next Manhattan District Attorney after his chief opponent, Tali Farhadian Weinstein officially conceded the race Friday.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have now counted a majority of paper ballots, and though we fought a hard race, it has become clear that we cannot overcome the vote margin. When all votes are counted, we expect to come in second by a few percentage points,\u201d she said in an email to supporters.<\/p>\n

Weinstein said she spoke with Bragg and offered her congratulations.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe had important disagreements throughout the campaign, but I am confident in Alvin\u2019s commitment to justice, and I stand ready to support him. I wish him and the women and men who serve in the district attorney\u2019s office every success,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Bragg still needs to get through a general<\/a> election against Republican rival Thomas Kenniff \u2014\u00a0something that is viewed as little more than a formality on the heavily Democratic leaning island.<\/p>\n

If he takes office, Bragg will become the first black District Attorney in the borough\u2019s history. He will also inherit the office\u2019s investigation of the Trump Organization \u2014\u00a0a controversial inquiry with potentially national implications.<\/p>\n

Bragg defeated a crowded field of primary challengers. Among the other vanquished opponents included, former \u201cSurvivor\u201d contestant and public defender Eliza Orlins, Assemblyman Dan Quart, civil rights attorney Tahanie Aboushi and former Manhattan assistant district attorney Lucy Lang. <\/p>\n
