There have been a lot of developments in #NY15 since earlier this week when I wrote about it

Quick thread —> nytimes.com/2020/06/09/nyr…

1. Melissa Mark-Viverito just got endorsements from Reps. Joaquin Castro and Raul Grijalva.

One reason that is so interesting: Castro is the chair of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus...whose political arm. BOLD PAC, is backing Ritchie Torres thehill.com/homenews/campa…

2. Ruben Diaz Sr. is up on air...with this ad

3. The Intercept published this piece, which opens with concerns about progressive vote-splitting and then spends a long time dissecting Torres's progressive credentials.

Lastly, next Monday — a week out from the primary — Diaz Sr. is doing a "grocery giveaway" alongside his son, Ruben Diaz Jr., who has not technically endorsed his father for Congress

Actual lastly, NARAL Pro-Choice America endorsed Torres on Wednesday

(And the Daily News, too)
