The tightening race for NY's 19th district is getting very interesting with the revelation that incumbent R Sue Kelly served on the Page Board from 1999 to 2001 (her office says it was unsure of her service dates). The Times Herald-Record just published
this article, which reads in part:
Rep. Jim Kolbe, R-Ariz., said this morning that a former page he sponsored warned House leadership of inappropriate advances by former Rep. Mark Foley, R-Fla., at least six years ago.
That's significant because Kelly was head of the board that oversees the page program from early 1999 to early 2001. Questions will now focus on how House leaders responded to the warning by Kolbe's page and whether word of the incident ever reached Kelly.
If you can, throw some support to John Hall
