Donovan endorses McCabe for City Council
Republican Liam McCabe is getting a big boost from his old boss in his race for the City Council.
U.S. Rep. Dan Donovan, for whom McCabe once worked as an aide, has endorsed him in the race in the 43rd Council District, a seat that covers Bay Ridge and Dyker Heights and includes parts of Bensonhurst and Bath Beach. The district is currently represented by Democrat Vincent Gentile, who is term-limited and will be leaving office at the end of the year.
“We need common sense leadership in the City Council, and I know Liam will deliver for the people of South Brooklyn,” Donovan (R-C-Southwest Brooklyn-Staten Island) said in an endorsement statement issued on Tuesday.
