Below is a link to an article in City Hall News positioning Steve Harrison as the Candidate of the people and Recchia as the machine candidate in a potential primary for the right to unseat Vito Fossella, the only Republican representing NYC in the house.

For those of you not familiar with the 13th Congressional District (Staten Island, Bay Ridge) race, Harrison received a higher percentage of the vote than any other Democrat since the district was gerrymandered to be Republican, including Staten Island elected officials, despite being out raised 13-1 (although the 130k raised from April 06 until election day was the third most by any Democratic candidate for this seat).
