Run for 11th is all tied up
The Daily News
By Elizabeth Hays
The Daily Politics reported the results of the latest poll for the 11th Congressional District, conducted on Monday, that had Yassky and Clarke at 20% and Owens and Andrews at 19%.
The synopsis of the Owens campaign included his criticism of Atlantic Yards:
Owens has strong name recognition, and though once considered an underdog, appears from the poll to have gathered momentum, [political observer Hank] Sheinkopf said.
"We have been in an upwards position in this campaign," Owens said.
"The more people hear and see me, the more they like me," added Owens, who has garnered support in some brownstone neighborhoods for his staunch opposition to the Atlantic Yards project.
