Fossella to resign?!

Sources are saying Vito Fossella will resign Monday and that Dan Donovan, Staten Island DA will be the Republican nominee to replace him. While a resignation is the worst of the three potential options for the republican party (resign, stay in but not run and run again) Donovan is certainly their best hope of keeping the seat. Tomorrow (later today) I will break down the candidate options and scenarios on both sides of the aisle.

note: I remain some what cautious of believing he will resign as its the worst option for Republicans and the various press conferences that were reported as imminent never happened.

What are the chance that Patterson will leave the seat open and let the Primaries proceed.

Very slim, there is no reason to leave the seat open. The constituents have no voice in Congress for months first of all. Second it seems like a great chance at a Dem pick-up and Paterson knows that.
