Woodbury, NY - Election is Coming Up And So Are The Corrupted Tactics

Woodbury, NY - A letter with Kiryas Joel letterhead on it, circulating and hand-delivered to residence of the Village of Woodbury, is addressed "to our Woodbury Neighbors" and is asking village residence to vote for mayoral candidate Ralph Caruso. It praises Caruso for helping Kiryas Joel win grants through his work for state Senator William Larkin.

But Kiryas Joel officials say they had nothing to do with the letter, that purports to be an endorsement by their residents for the mayoral candidate Ralph Caruso. "We're not taking any position in this election," Village Administrator Gedalye Szegedin said.

Caruso is one of four candidates for mayor running tomorrow in the first Village of Woodbury election. Eight other people are running for four trustee seats.
