Justice For Brighton is supporting a slate of three (3) candidates for Brighton Democratic Committee in the 32nd Election District: Niema Atkins, Serina Tetenov, Ph.D., and Grant Atkins. Grant and Niema are educators in the public school system; Serina, an incumbent Committee member, is the Chief Program Officer at Villa of Hope.
The other candidates in ED32 are supported by Democrats for Brighton, an authorized multi-candidate committee with the dubious distinction of running an all-white slate of 31 candidates across Brighton, as documented in the article Whiter Than A Trump Rally: Town Councilmember Christine Corrado and her husband, Andy Green; attorney Tim Harren; and Aron Reina. Mr. Reina is the only candidate who does not live in the district.
