.@NYSenatorFelder at tonight’s Bay Democrats meeting: “If you are a committed Democrat and you're looking for a committed Democrat, I am not your guy." Points for honesty!pic.twitter.com/moExoNY9jX

As per Ari Kagan's quotes in Bklyner article, he considers it a club for small-d democrats and anyone running for office is welcome to come speak regardless of party. It's also a club whose members are mostly big-D Democrats so not many GOP show up.https://bklyner.com/i-am-not-your-guy/ …
That's... A strategy I guess. Who needs a political compass? If you have the gall and resources to run for office, any office, on any issues whatsoever, there's a platform for you here at the small d dem club.

The club itself certainly has values and candidates are taken to task when they deviate from them. From what we hear, Felder was not warmly received (mostly due to former Yeshiva students being upset at the state of Yeshiva ed. today and Felders role in perpetuating that.

Of course Felder should be challenged, most of his constituents are impacted negatively by his policies. My concern is about dem clubs giving him a platform, staying neutral when convenient. How will their neutrality hold up when there's a real challenge?https://twitter.com/Ocasio2018/status/993497869565952001?s=19 …
I triggered the 1st Congressional primary here in 14 years. No Corp money. First woman of color to run in this 70% PoC district. We collected 5x the required signatures in district to do it. But apparently no Dem club in Queens finds me worthy of a debate. I wonder why?
