Fed up with his party’s kowtowing to its “progressive” wing with soft-on-crime policies, a former conservative Democratic Brooklyn lawmaker switched his party registration to Republican as he plots a run for his old Assembly seat in the borough’s red-trending southern precincts, The Post has learned.
Alec Brook-Krasny’s switch comes as Democrats flee the party nationally, with 29 House Democrats deciding to retire or not seek re-election instead of fighting against the GOP’s “defund the police” attacks and President Biden’s policies.
“I can’t believe everything that’s going on in the Democratic party, all the calls to ‘defund the police,’ the cancel culture. It goes against my character and my nature,” Brook-Krasny, a former state assemblyman, told The Post.
Brook-Krasny is eying a run for his old Assembly seat in the 46th District, which under redistricting includes Coney Island, Brighton Beach, Bath Beach and Dyker Heights. Mathylde Frontus is the Democratic incumbent.

Sounds nice. Don’t trust him. We have enough Assistant Democrats.
Two words......Charlie Crist.
He seemed very trustworthy this morning on Fox and Friends
Very articulate as he gave his history!
And there's the problem. The fact that the GOP embraces people like that with open arms, just to win a seat. All the while they vilify someone that was a hardcore NYC liberal for decades that truly had a change of heart, as told by his actions. That would be DJ Trump, for all the slow ones out there, like the FReepers that still think COVID is the next coming of the Black Death, that surgical masks work, and that being triple jabbed will protect you.
He must have sensed his constituents getting fed up with the Democrat party.
Anyone who remained a Dem during the obammy and Trump administrations is not someone I would trust.
‘He must have sensed his constituents getting fed up with the Democrat party.’
Thinking the same thing. Maybe we’ll see a wave of Dems going Republican. It can’t be all bad.
Leftist always seek to infiltrate other groups to co-opt them.
He’s a Russian Jew running in a very Russian area. He has good reason to quit the Democrat Party. He even had a Russian language campaign website.
Just two words
Eric Adams
My sentiments exactly. Why didn’t he switch quite some time ago? He was an accomplice to many votes that hurt the American people. Do not trust him! This is not a win for our side it is another snake slithering itself into our party. And he’ll probably continue voting and siding with the rats. I for one do not celebrate I am more skeptical than ever about anyone that switches parties! At least Senator Manchin, as crooked as he is he stands with his evil party because He knows he was elected as a Democrat by the people who voted for him. And I’m more than sure he does not want to betray his constituency. This guy stuck his finger up in the air to see which way the wind was blowing and decided to switch because he knows the rats are done. He ain’t no fool. Don’t trust a snake.
He’s not black....
...and I bet most of you responding haven’t even heard him speak!

Even if he is trustworthy, NYC now has RCV.
Until that’s repealed, the fix is in.
And if they are RINO’s, at least Pelosi will be out.
That alone is worth the price of admission.
And who knows, God Forbid, we might see her stroke out on election night.
There's a reason why so many shady characters who were born in the Soviet Union felt right at home in New York City.
How racist of you!
Nothing in my post had anything to do with anyone’s complexion.
Eric Adms, after decades bouncing around the Brooklyn Democrat clubhouse, became a Republican for Rudy’s second term. It was during this period that he attained his “Captaincy” in the NYPD. (still have no idea which command he headed)
Reverted to his true calling as a RAT in Rudy’s last year.
A little to much knee-jerk there, Ma’am!
S/B...too
a future RINO
