Rudy Giuliani Campaigns for Staten Island Republicans

Staten Island has always been a stronghold for former Mayor Rudy Giuliani, and Friday morning seniors at the Arrochar Friendship Club showed he’s still popular with them.

“It’s great to be here today, and I’ve always admired Rudy Giuliani,” said resident Maria Mobilia.

Giuliani visited two senior centers on behalf of Borough President James Molinaro, Mid-Island Councilman James Oddo and South Shore Councilman Vincent Ignizio, who are all running for re-election. The former mayor, who is wildly popular in the borough, encouraged seniors to vote for the trio because he says they’ve continued what he called the “good work” that began he was mayor and Guy Molinari was borough president.

Molinaro and Oddo have been criticized for running for a third term after Mayor Bloomberg extended term limits, but Giuliani disagrees with the nay-sayers.

“I think a third term for people who understand Staten Island, were there at the beginning with Guy Molinari, and all the changes that were made to turn Staten Island around, I think it’s very, very helpful,” said Giuliani. “I think you can get a great deal done.”
