Janae Pierre: Welcome to NYC NOW, your source for local news in and around New York City from WNYC. It's Tuesday, June 10th. Here's the morning headlines from Michael Hill.
Michael Hill: It's primary day in New Jersey. WNYC's Sean Carlson has more about who is on the ballot.
Sean Carlson: Six Democrats are vying to be their party's nominee to replace Governor Phil Murphy. Representatives Mikie Sherrill and Josh Gottheimer, Newark Mayor Ras Baraka, Jersey City Mayor Steven Fulop, teachers union boss Sean Spiller, and former state senate president Steve Sweeney. There are five Republicans: former Assemblymember Jack Ciattarelli, state Senator Jon Bramnick, local radio personality Bill Spadea, real estate developer Justin Barbera, and former Englewood Cliffs Mayor Mario Kranjac. Along with a primary for governor, there are also a host of other contest today, including for the entire state assembly. Polls are open until 8:00 PM tonight.
Michael Hill: Forest Hill Stadium is hosting a summer packed with concerts. For years, the Queens venue has faced numerous noise complaints made by neighbors. As WNYC's Giulia Heyward reports, the season is already off to a loud start.
Giulia Heyward: The city's 311 system received 40 noise complaints in the zip code containing Forest Hill Stadium on the same day as the venue's first show of the summer. That's almost triple the number of claims made in the same area the previous week, and it's on trend. An earlier WNYC analysis showed that the number of noise complaints on nights there were concerts increased last year, and considering that there are multiple events scheduled to take place at the stadium from now until August, it will likely continue. The next concert is scheduled for Saturday. Forest Hill did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
Michael Hill: The New York Liberty have won all eight games of this new WNBA regular season. That's better than the start of their first season in 1997. The Libs will make it, will try to make it to nine in a row tonight in Brooklyn when they host Angel Reese and the Chicago Sky. An injury has ended the season for the Sky's guard Courtney Vandersloot, who helped the Liberty winning championship last season.
63 with clouds and fog and mist. A dense fog advisory till mid-morning because of low visibility along the shore. We have showers and maybe a thunderstorm, afternoon sunshine and maybe another thunderstorm. A high near 76, warmer tomorrow, sunny and warmer all the way up to 84.
