Felder tops Conservative Party ratings
Borough Park State Senator is a Democrat
The Brooklyn lawmaker with the highest rating from the New York State Conservative Party is…a Democrat.
State Sen. Simcha Felder (D-Borough Park-Midwood) and a Republican colleague from Broome County earned the highest rating among senators in the Conservative Party’s annual ratings.
Felder and state Sen. Fred Akshar (R-Broome County) both scored 90 percent, meaning that 90 percent of the time, they voted on bills the Conservative Party had endorsed or voted against legislation the party had fought against.
