GOP mayoral candidates court voters in southern Brooklyn
As the mayoral campaign heads into high gear, Republican candidates John Catsimatidis and Joe Lhota have both been spending a lot of time courting voters in southern Brooklyn in recent days.
With six weeks to go before the Sept. 10 primary, Catsimatidis and Lhota are pulling out all the stops in an attempt to entice GOP voters in the southern end of the borough.
On June 29th, Catsimatidis held a ribbon cutting ceremony to mark the grand opening of his new campaign office in Bay Ridge. The Bay Ridge campaign headquarters, at 8319 Third Ave., is the eighth office the billionaire supermarket mogul has opened in the city and second in Brooklyn, according to his campaign.
