America : Supreme Court strikes down DOMA and Prop 8

45 sec read

With just over two months to go before the primary, the endorsements are starting to roll in for the candidates vying to replace New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg.

On Wednesday night, Christine Quinn received a surprise endorsement from Edith Windsor, the plaintiff in the case that prompted the Supreme Court to strike down the Defense of Marriage Act. Windsor’s endorsement came during a rally held just hours after the court’s decision outside the historic Stonewall Inn in Manhattan when she jumped onstage to join Quinn, who is gay, and announced she was supporting the City Council speaker’s bid for mayor.

“I was committed to not endorse anyone until there was a decision” on DOMA, Windsor declared, before adding, “Christine Quinn!”

“Bill de Blasio is the progressive fighter New York City needs,” Dean, who also served as chairman of the Democratic National Committee, said in a statement. “As a lifelong progressive reformer and grassroots organizer, Bill will take on the elite who profit from the status quo at the expense of working families. From battling the flood of corporate money and corrupt insiders deals that infect our politics to challenging the powerful interests that block common-sense gun violence prevention, Bill has always been a voice for everyday New Yorkers.”
