Grimms Pitch to Activists: Keep at Least One NYC Republican in Congress
BY COLIN CAMPBELL
Congressman Michael Grimm made his electoral pitch to Republican Party stalwarts in the city yesterday. His message: Im all youve got.
Speaking to members of the Brooklyn Young Republican Club gather in the back room of an Irish pub in Carroll Gardens, Mr. Grimm stressed that hes now the only GOP federal legislator elected in the heavily Democratic five boroughs, and asked for volunteers to help keep Democrats from winning a full sweep.
Im very optimistic about with chances. We have strong numbers. Im a hard worker. Ive assembled a good team, Mr. Grimm assured the group. But I definitely need volunteers. So if theres anyone here that would like to volunteer to make sure we keep at least one Republican at the federal level in New York Cityat least one!and then we need to start working on getting more
This is where it happens.
Mr. Grimm, who occupies a competitive Staten Island-based seat, is facing a strong challenge from former Brooklyn Councilman Domenic Recchia, whose supporters are hoping an ongoing federal investigation into Mr. Grimms campaign fund-raising will help sink his chances. The Staten Island Advance reported Friday that a Texas woman who was allegedly arrested in connection with the investigation is engaged in plea negotiations, according to court documents.
