Brooklyn Borough President Candidate Khari Edwards Unveils Cutting-Edge Digital Newsroom to Revolutionize the 2025 Campaign

Brooklyn, NY – January 13, 2024 – Khari Edwards, candidate for Brooklyn Borough President, has announced the launch of a state-of-the-art digital newsroom to enhance communication with journalists and Brooklyn residents. The innovative platform is designed to provide editorial-ready stories, press releases, and high-quality images, streamlining access to campaign updates and critical information.

This initiative reflects Edwards’ commitment to leveraging technology to improve the lives of Brooklyn residents, ensuring vital resources and updates are readily available across the borough.

“It’s time to bring 21st-century technology to Brooklyn,” Edwards said. “Brooklyn needs to reclaim its position as a leader in innovation. By embracing technology, we can improve areas such as education, healthcare, homeownership, and small businesses. This newsroom is a step toward making resources accessible to every resident.”

The newsroom offers journalists and the public access to Edwards’ positions on key issues, including education, healthcare, public safety, housing, and economic development. Edwards intends to set a new standard for transparency and accessibility in political campaigns and governance.

“Over the past few years, Brooklyn has taken many steps backward,” Edwards continued. “Housing has become unaffordable due to unchecked development, and we’re failing to promote equity throughout the borough. Technology can help bridge these gaps by connecting Brooklynites to affordable housing opportunities and essential resources. This is the type of forward-thinking leadership I plan to bring to Borough Hall.”

In addition to transforming campaign communication, Edwards plans to introduce similar technology at Borough Hall to provide residents with neighborhood-specific updates, community programs, and access to vital government services.

We need a Borough Hall that reflects the future,” Edwards added. “By using technology to connect residents with real-time resources, we can ensure no one is left behind. From East New York and Canarsie to Bay Ridge and Coney Island, every Brooklynite deserves a government that works for them.”
