Top Democrats Endorse John Avlon in New York Primary

“New York’s Democratic House members are taking a rare stand in a competitive primary, endorsing centrist John Avlon — who worked as a speechwriter for former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani before becoming a CNN anchor — over liberal rival Nancy Goroff in a Long Island race,” the New York Post reports.

“Reps. Tom Suozzi, Gregory Meeks and Dan Goldman are getting behind Avlon in the 1st congressional district, which covers the East End and other parts of Suffolk County.”
