NYC-CC14: Three-way fight for Council District 14 heating up in Bronx primary (D)

In the upcoming Democratic primary, the race for Council District 14, which covers the neighborhoods of Kingsbridge, University Heights and Fordham, has become one of the most watched in the Bronx.

Incumbent Council Member Pierina Sanchez is running for re-election against her predecessor, pastor Fernando Cabrera, and Bryan Hodge Vasquez, a law school graduate.

Cabrera is seeking a return to his former seat, having served in the council from 2010 until 2022. After being term-limited out, he ran unsuccessfully for the Bronx Borough President seat ultimately won by current BP Vanessa Gibson.

In separate interviews with the Bronx Times, Sanchez leaned on her record of service and investment in the district, while her opponents said constituents want change.
