Choose Montgomery, Not a Phantom

Courier-Life endorses Velmanette Montgomery:

On the one hand you have Montgomery: a hard-working, well-liked incumbent who regularly attends community meetings and isn’t afraid to challenge the status quo (she is one of the few local legislators who is adamantly opposed to Atlantic Yards) and then you have Tracy Boyland, a former Bedford-Stuyvesant City Councilmember (whose career in City Hall was lackluster at best) who apparently has no platform, no campaign office, and, although she has circulated some literature, hasn’t been seen in the downtown Brooklyn side of the district, which stretches from Sunset Park all the way to central Brooklyn.
...
That leaves us with just speculation and rumors that [Boyland] is the “Ratner candidate” and that her entire campaign is being paid by Forest City Ratner Companies (FCRC wouldn’t comment.)
