The Staten Island Independence Party has endorsed Democrat Manny Innamorato in the Feb. 20 City Council special election.

"We think Manny is the best choice for independent voters and independent-minded voters," Independence borough chair Sarah Lyons said at a press conference in the St. George Ferry Terminal yesterday.

At the same event yesterday, Innamorato was backed by Russian-born Brooklyn Assemblyman Alec Brook-Krasny, an endorsement that Innamorato hopes will help him with voters who are members of the South Shore's growing Russian population.
