Drop out of Rick Santorum, wide lead for Romney in polls, among signs
New York's Republican presidential primary is today, but don't expect the excitement seen from earlier nomination contests.

Even in the closing weeks of Santorum's candidacy, polls for New York (including Quinnipiac and Siena) showed Romeny with large double-digit leads. Santorum is still listed on the ballot, according to records from the state's board of elections.

NY State Assemblyman George Latimer explains, among other things, why its important to survey commuters within his constituency.

Dear Editor, Bronxville Republican Chairwoman Rene Atayan has attacked for me doing something I've been doing for eight years—simply put, doing my job as an Assemblyman.
