What’s going on here --- Is Gounardes turning his sights from Marty G’s seat to the bruised bum of Pam Harris

Frankly,  sinking one's chops into the  pendulous chocolate hind quarter of a supine,  wounded filly politico sounds like a lot more fun than into the rump of a rotten-Irish-skinned old warhorse

 Well, talk of all bums aside,  what is Andrew Gounardes going to do ?????

According to “City & State—New York”  ---  “Bay Ridge Democratic state Senate candidate Andrew Gounardes is considering dropping out of the race to run for indicted Assemblywoman Pamela Harris’ seat instead. Gounardes is currently running in state Senate District 22, a seat currently held by Republican state Sen. Martin Golden that stretches across Southern Brooklyn from Bay Ridge to Marine Park….”   (See  “Golden challenger Gounardes considering Assembly run instead” By Jeff Coltin,  3/1/18,   City & State – New York/  Campaigns & Elections   [https://www.cityandstateny.com/articles/politics/campaigns-elections/golden-challenger-gounardes-considering-assembly-run-instead]).

Mr. Coltin’s  piece in  “City & State…”  goes on to say this:   “….[A ] run for Harris’ Assembly seat could be a much easier way for Gounardes to get to Albany. Harris was indicted on fraud charges in January, and Brooklyn Democratic Party County Leader Frank Seddio said he doesn’t expect her to run again, even if she avoids a conviction. While that District 46 seat, which stretches from Bay Ridge to Coney Island, has traditionally been held by a Coney Islander, Bay Ridge native Gounardes would likely become an immediate front-runner if he ran, thanks to his fundraising and political connections...."
