The Democrat running for Staten Island District Attorney, Mike Ryan, was endorsed by Eliot Spitzer today. Above is a picture the campaign is circulating along with the official announcement.

Interestingly, Spitzer is in the city today, but he isn't making an appearance with Ryan on State Island. And, so far, the governor has no public schedule for tomorrow, Election Day.

Last week I posted a campaign ad from Democratic Staten Island District Attorney candidate Mike Ryan. This week, an ad from the other side.

Above is one of the dozen or so created for the incumbent, Republican Dan Donovan. In this one, he discusses his felony conviction rate in the borough.

In case you needed a reminder that there's a competitive election this year, here's an ad from the Staten Island's DA's race.

It’s for the Democratic District Attorney candidate, Mike Ryan, and it features Jo Marie Damato, the mother of an alleged sexual assault victim whose case ended with the alleged perpetrator free.

“Donovan, you were wrong," she says. "Thanks to you Mr. Donovan, there’s a sexual abuser walking the streets now.”

The incumbent in the race is Republican Dan Donovan, who is also coming under fire from his one-time employer, Jim Molinaro, the Borough President. Molinaro is unhappy Donovan didn’t get his grandson off on charges of assault.

A Ryan campaign aide said the spot will run 150 times on the most watched cable stations on Staten Island.
