Frontus-Lustig Elgrably Assembly race so far too close to call
In the race for the Democratic nomination in the 46th Assembly District, which includes Bath Beach, Bay Ridge, Brighton Beach, Coney Island, Dyker Heights and Seagate, grassroots community activist Mathylde Frontus was leading at 11:55 p.m. by a narrow margin of 51 percent (3,030 votes) over Ethan Lustig-Elgrably’s 49 percent (2,915 votes) with 71 out of 84 precincts in the 46th A.D. reporting, according to unofficial results.
Lustig-Elgrably is a former staffer for Councilmember Mark Treyger, who backed him strongly and brought a great deal of party support to his candidacy.
Given the closeness of the race, neither candidate has issued a statement of victory or concession.
