Former MTA boss Joe Lhota all but told Republican Party leaders today that he’s a candidate for mayor and he’s equipped to run the nation’s largest city.
“Mr. Lhota made an excellent case that he would be an effective mayor,” Staten Island GOP chairman Bob Scamardella said following a meeting with Lhota.
“I asked if he has decided to run. Mr. Lhota told me, `I’m going through the decision-making process now. But I wouldn’t have the left the MTA if I did not think I was going to be a candidate for mayor.’”
“In my mind, he’s just about there (a candidate). His decision is going to be `yes,’” Scamardella said.
