Philly’s no longer a two-party town. History was made Tuesday night when Working Families Party candidate Kendra Brooks won a seat on City Council. It’s the first time a council seat reserved for a minority party has gone to an independent, and the first time a third-party candidate won any elected office in the city since 1980. Max Marin with WHYY’s Billy Penn explains why she won and what it means for the future of Philly politics.
