Three candidates face off in Manhattan borough president debate

Three candidates vying to become the next Manhattan borough president went head-to-head in a NY1 debate.

The candidates include state Sen. Brad Hoylman-Sigal, who represents parts of the west side of Manhattan; Councilman Keith Powers, who represents parts of the east side of Manhattan; and Calvin Sun, who is an emergency physician.

The seat is currently occupied by Mark Levine, who is running for city comptroller.

Since it rolled out in January, the MTA argues that data shows congestion pricing below 60th Street is working by raising revenue and cutting down on Manhattan traffic.
