Storobin Loses Important Russian Turner-Booster

Republican David Storobin's race to win Kruger's Senate seat suffered a heavy blow.

The republican Storobin was banking on Bob Turner voters and his Russiam community, but the strongest Turner- force in the Russian community shattered his goals. Media Mogul Gregory Davidzon’s Endorsed Lew Fidler.

Davidzon owns a number of Russian-language media outlets, and is credited with helping push Russian voters to the polls in the last special election in southeastern Brooklyn, where Congressman Bob Turner routed his Democratic opponent.

It remains to be seen if Mr. Davidzon will use his influence to rally voters in the same full-throated fashion as he did for Congressman Turner. However, one Democratic insider assured Politicker that the media head would indeed be working hard on the Councilman’s behalf, saying that “Greg is going all out for Fidler.” Mr. Davidzon said at the event that he was frustrated with the Senate Republicans efforts to divide southern Brooklyn in redistricting.
