Political insiders say the Bronx County Democratic Committee — which opposed Blake's election in 2014 and tried to get him booted from the ballot on the grounds that he hadn't lived in New York long enough — is not
enthusiastic about his candidacy.
Political insiders told the Observer in December that the Bronx County Democratic Committee — which had opposed Blake's election in 2014, and had attempted to get him kicked off the ballot under the argument that he hadn't lived in New York long enough — was not
enthusiastic about his candidacy, and saw it as a precursor to a bid for Congress.
Despite media reports that state GOP chairman Edward Cox isn't
enthusiastic about his candidacy, Donovan said the two have a good relationship.
