Video: 15th Council Debate on BronxTalk

A week ago, BronxTalk hosted a debate among candidates in the 15th District City Council race. Above is the video from that debate, the sedond of six consecutive debate BronxTalk is hosting. We’ve embedded the video above. Tonight, BronxTalk will have candidates from the 16th Council District live at 9 p.m. on Bronxnet.

Below are links to quick video clips from 15th Council District candidates taken at an earlier debate at the Bronx Library Center.

(Edtior’s note: Kenny Agosto was at this debate too, but his petition signatures were challenged and he did not have enough valid signatures to get on the ballot. Joel Bauza is also in the race, but he didn’t attend the library forum.)
