Michelle Schimel<\/a> tosses fellow microstamping sponsor Eric Schneiderman<\/a> under the bus and endorses opponent Kathleen Rice<\/a>. \u00a0The Observer reports<\/a>:<\/p>\n

“… The Rice campaign is expected to announce the endorsement of Assemblywoman Michelle Schimel, who, along with Schneiderman, led the charge to pass a firearm microstamping bill in Albany earlier this year … When asked how she would explain what appears to be a slight at Schneiderman, Schimel said, “I don’t have to explain it. My relationship with her is deeper and longer and that’s just how I base my judgment. And she is a prosecutor too, and assertive, and that’s how I’m pitching it…I certainly don’t want to denigrate Eric. That’s not the goal of this.” …”<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
