American voters elected Donald J. Trump as its 47th President of the United States on Tuesday, a resounding victory for the former president that was ousted by Joe Biden in 2020.<\/p>\n

Closer to home, there were several notable tight races in Brooklyn. Republican Steve Chan won against incumbent Democrat Iwen Chu in state Senate District 17, which covers portions of Sunset Park, Borough Park, Dyker Heights, Bath Beach and Bensonhurst, by capturing 55% of the vote to Chu’s 45%, according to the unofficial results by the\u00a0city Board of Elections<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Results are still unofficial in the race for Assembly District 45, which covers portions of Midwood, Manhattan Beach, Brighton Beach, Gravesend\u00a0and Sheepshead Bay. Democrat Joey Cohen-Saban currently has 49.32% of the votes, while incumbent Republican Michael Novakhov has 50.2% with 98.92% of votes scanned.<\/p>\n

Incumbent Democrat Jessica Scarcella-Spanton, who represents parts of south Brooklyn and Staten Island, declared victory as she captured 54.69% of the votes while opponent Marko Kepi, a Republican, took 44.86%.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Republican Alex Brook-Kransy won back his seat against challenger Chris McCreight, a Democrat,\u00a0in the 46th Assembly District, which includes parts of Bay Ridge, Dyker Heights and Coney Island.<\/p>\n

City voters also approved Propositions 1 – 5, which includes the Equal Rights Amendment, but did not approve Proposition 6, which would have created a new Chief Business Diversity Officer position at City Hall, reorganize film permitting procedures, among other things.<\/p>\n

Here are the results from the Nov. 5 election for Brooklyn voters:<\/p>\n
