Description | In his attempt to hold off former New York City Council Member Tony Avella this year, State Sen. Frank Padavan will have the crucial Independence Party line.
But fellow Queens Republican Anthony Como, who is running against State Sen. Joe Addabbo, will not.
The party’s executive committee officially submitted its endorsements on Monday.
Both riled members of the State Independence Party by using members of the party’s rival New York City faction to gatherer their petition signatures. Padavan was pulled from the precipice thanks to his longstanding ties with party chair Frank MacKay and his close relationship with Mayor Michael Bloomberg, an Independence ally and benefactor.
But in Como’s race, the line went to Addabbo. |
