Departs, May Run for His Seat http://www.observer.com/2007/weprins-crowded-fund-raiser Last night at David Weprin’s fund-raiser for his city comptroller campaign, I learned that the City Councilman’s long-time chief of staff, Jack Rubin Friedman, is leaving in January to become the head of the Queens Chamber of Commerce. One attendee told me that Rubin might run for Weprin’s seat in 2009. (Rubin was standing nearby and interjected that it’s only a possibility at this point.)

The event at the Woolworth Kitchen and Towers drew a number of notable attendees: Dan Gardonick, Eric Gioia, Dave Pollak, Hank Sheinkopf, Domenic Recchia, Diane Savino and George Arzt.

Press-shy top aides to Christine Quinn, Ramone Martinez and Chuck Meara, were also there, and probably weren’t thrilled when Weprin announced their presence over the microphone.]]> http://www.observer.com/2007/weprins-crowded-fund-raiser#comments Politics Chuck Meara Dave Pollak David Weprin Diane Savino Domenic Recchia Eric Gioia George Arzt Hank Sheinkopf Ramone Martinez Thu, 29 Nov 2007 11:41:39 -0500 Azi Paybarah 61176 at http://www.observer.com
