Would it be logical for Mayor Bill de Blasio and New York’s Democratic members in the House of Representatives to accept or even welcome a Republican winning the upcoming special election in the 11th Congressional District? That seat was held by Michael Grimm, the only Republican House member from New York City. Republicans hold a 245 to 188 edge over Democrats in the House and a member of the majority may be more successful than the minority members in advancing New York City’s interests. Mayor de Blasio, when asked that question by Anna Sanders of the Staten Island Advance, didn’t buy it.
