via McMahon press release;
"Staten Island and Southern Brooklyn need a strong voice in Congress to get results in transportation, health care and the economy," Mayor Bloomberg said. "During the last seven years, Mike and I have worked together to deliver just those kind of results: increasing ferry service, developing a workable solid waste plan after decades of stagnation, holding the line on government spending, and saving surpluses for tougher times like the ones we're in now. The 13th Congressional District and all of New York City need a proven leader like Mike to fight for results in Washington. He's delivered during his seven years on the City Council, and I know he'll work just as hard in Washington. I am proud to endorse Mike McMahon for Congress, and urge all of the voters of Staten Island and Southern Brooklyn to send him to Washington this November."

This follows the endorsement by Staten Island Borough President James Molinaro.
"Mike McMahon has always been there for Staten Island, and now Staten Island needs to be there for him. Mike has consistently delivered for Staten Island on increased ferry service, a long-term solid waste plan, new parks and libraries, and more nurses for our schools. I know he'll bring that same fight for the district to Washington, and that's why I am endorsing him as the best and only choice to represent the 13th Congressional District in Congress," said Molinaro.
Molinaro is essentially the Conservative Party leader on Staten Island and his disdain for the Republican nominee Bob Straniere is well known. These are two large endorsements for McMahon in a race that is already trending strongly in his favor.
