A campaign mailer sent out by Elizabeth Crowley that reads “eviction notice” in large font has sparked outrage among her critics.
The mailer, released by her campaign last week, was intended to attack Queens Borough President Donovan Richards for accepting real estate money—but was viewed by many as being in poor taste.
The “eviction notice” was accompanied by a message accusing Richards of taking campaign money from developers and landlords—many of whom Crowley says are trying to kick struggling tenants out.
“Queens is ready for its comeback, but first we have to end our housing crisis and make sure our neighbors can stay in their homes,” the mailer also reads.
Some felt the mailer was insensitive, since many people are struggling to pay the rent.

I find it really weird that Donovan just won but everyone is still running against him.
I’m outraged!
Lizzie will get down on her hands and knees to win.
With all due respect, if you are so dumb that you mistake this ad for an eviction notice, then you probably shouldn't be voting.
Donovan just won to finish out Katz's term. This is now for a 4-year term.
Only in English ? That's RaCiSt right ?
I find it really weird the sheeple don't wake up !
It's a strange fucked up world when Crowley is the best candidate for borough president, ain't it?

You're not wrong, but, at first glance it would frighten a lot of people who are worried about their finances. Very poor taste.
What a terrible flyer, but here we are talking about it, it on the news, this website.
No such thing as bad publicity
At least Crowley has her criminal son on a leash this time out.
Way to go Crowley!
Always try to use scare tactics to get people of Queens to vote for you!
-Shameful
I’m outraged!
