Kelly Makes the Rounds


Ray Kelly, who tops today’s Quinnipiac poll of possible mayoral candidates, is pictured here during a visit yesterday with Jewish leaders in Williamsburg—something that many who are pondering elected office do at some point.

The picture was e-mailed to reporters by Yoel Lefkowitz, a political operative and member of the Jewish community who seems pleased to be among the courted.

UPDATE: Kelly is also expected to be among the featured guests at a conference hosted by The New Yorker, titled “New Yorker Conference: Stories from the Near Future.” Other featured guests include San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom, Newsweek International editor Fareed Zakaria, and the president of the Service Employees International Union, Andy Stern.

Kelly, who insists he doesn't have designs on the mayor's office, nevertheless continues to lead the pack of potential '09 candidates, as per this morning's Q poll.

Lest you think Kelly might be stepping in the middle of the never-ending Satmar power struggle, Lefkowitz said the commissioner visited with Rabbi Zalman Teitelbaum a few days ago.
