More news on the upcoming special election in New York via Politicker NY:

The March 20th special election to replace corrupt former State Senator Carl Kruger is less than week away, and if you read any Jewish newspapers or websites in Brooklyn, you’re probably quite aware of this.

... Mr. Storobin has his own list of Rabbinical support. On the back cover of yesterday’s edition of Hamodia, he publicized the list along with his endorsements from Congressman Bob Turner and former Mayor Rudy Giuliani. His ad additionally presented a compare-and-contrast section criticizing Mr. Fidler over abortion, gay marriage, and school vouchers.

Third party organizations are also spending some money on ads. Brooklyn Tea Party head Joseph Hayon paid for a letter against Mr. Fidler’s candidacy in yesterday’s Hamodia, and the National Organization for Marriage ran a prominent pro-Storobin ad on the cover of The Vues, both on the issue of gay marriage.
