Kiryas, Joel, Monroe, NY - Kelly, Hall Go Courting for Votes

Kiryas, Joel, Monroe, NY - How much difference could one little village make in a congressional race?
Plenty, if the village is Kiryas Joel and the competitive race between Republican Sue Kelly and Democratic challenger John Hall for the 19th District seat comes down to a few thousand votes on Tuesday.

Both candidates have been courting the endorsement of the village's leaders - who command the larger of two Kiryas Joel voting blocs - and enlisting a posse of powerful politicians to help make their cases.
