Molinari: Donovan is ‘going to run’

Colby Hamilton

Daniel Donovan, Staten Island’s district attorney, has already decided to run in the special election to replace Rep. Michael Grimm, according to Guy Molinari, the influential Staten Island Republican and former borough president.

Donovan, a former chief of staff to Molinari, issued a statement earlier on Tuesday that said he is "seriously considering" a run.

Molinari said he’d spoken with Donovan directly, and that the D.A. had informed Molinari of his decision.

If Don8van runs i don't think we can win this district. This sucks!
