Primary Day in New York City had two big surprises. Yusef Salaam of the “Exonerated Five” is poised to win a City Council primary in Harlem and longtime Brooklyn City Councilman Charles Barron is badly trailing challenger Chris Banks.
Brigid Bergin, the senior politics reporter at WNYC, and Emily Ngo, a political reporter for NY1, joined Errol Louis to discuss the primaries and talk about which races they found the most interesting. They also looked at the election's low turnout rate and discussed what could get more voters to the polls.
