Brooklyn Borough President Antonio Reynoso, 43, who grew up a “poor kid” on the south side of Williamsburg, is running in the June 23 Democratic primary for New York’s 7th Congressional District. He’s pitching voters who are sick of what he calls performative politics. In a June 2 interview with the Queens Chronicle, Reynoso said he’s running on his record.

“I just really feel like the American people are tired of talking heads and performative politics, and want people to get into the federal government and do something for them, actually work for them,” he said.

The campaign has drawn endorsements from state Attorney General Letitia James, outgoing Rep. Nydia Velázquez, the Working Families Party, and the Queens Democrats. In May, District Council 37, New York City’s largest municipal union, added its support.
