Signatures From Nearly 8,000 Queens Residents Shows Quinn’s Campaign to Keep Queens Safe is Resonating Across the Borough

Former Assistant District Attorney and candidate for Queens Borough President Jim Quinn today filed 7,809 signatures with the New York City Board of Elections to get on the ballot, four times more than the required 2,000 signatures needed.

“This campaign is a movement to stop the radical progressive insanity that is threatening our public safety and the incredible outpouring of support I have received is proof that this message is resonating with people from all political persuasions,” said former Assistant District Attorney Jim Quinn. “Everywhere I go, I hear concerns and outrage from people who are fed up with the extreme direction politicians are taking our city. I spent my life fighting to keep dangerous predators off our streets and delivering justice for crime victims, and I will bring that same conviction of service and commonsense to Borough Hall.”

Mr. Quinn expressed his gratitude to all of the volunteers, community and political leaders who carried petitions to accomplish this effort.

Jim Quinn is a distinguished law enforcement professional who spent 42 years as Queens Assistant District Attorney, including holding leadership positions in the office as Executive Assistant DA of the Trial Division, Chief of the Narcotics Investigations Bureau and Deputy Chief of the Homicide Investigations Bureau. He has tried over 30 murder cases and successfully prosecuted hundreds of career criminals and major offenders. Jim is a lifelong resident of Queens who grew up in the Ravenswood Housing Projects in Long Island City and worked his way through college and law school as a cab driver, security guard, store clerk and mailman. He is a proud graduate of Brooklyn Tech High School, Columbia University and Fordham Law. He and his wife, Susan, have four grown children. They reside in Richmond Hill.
