Kiryas Joel, Monroe, NY - NYC Mayor Bloomberg did a mighty big favor for Republican Rep. Sue Kelly, who faces a tough re-election battle, by setting aside time to meet with some of her Rockland County constituents.
"Sue Kelly made a personal request of the mayor," said one insider.
So Bloomberg agreed to chat with leaders of the Satmar Hasidic sect in Kiryas Joel who want to build a yeshiva in the Williamsburg section of Brooklyn on a site zoned for industrial use.
During the sit-down, Bloomberg said "nice things about Sue Kelly," according to the insider.
The Satmars are one of the most important voting blocs in Kelly's district.
