Pro Bono Barrister: Would a primary help Recchia in Grimm race?
Evangelist to Oppose Recchia in Democratic Congressional Primary?
If you can believe what Will Bredderman wrote in recent “Will’s Watch” column in the Courier Life — and I usually do — there is a scheme afoot that would have an Evangelical minister (who is also a former mayoral candidate) run in a Democratic primary against former Councilman Domenic Recchia, who is the leading Democrat in the race to unseat Republican-Conservative U.S. Rep. Michael Grimm in November.
Bredderman says that the apparent political architect of this scenario is Democratic Assemblyman Bill Colton, whose ongoing battles with the Recchia camp have compelled him to urge Staten Island-based minister Erick Salgado to oppose Recchia in the upcoming primary.
