Caroline Kennedy Meets with Syracuse Mayor


John Kennedy's daughter, Caroline Kennedy, the NY State Senator hopeful, recently came to Syracuse for a meeting with Mayor Matt Driscoll. After exiting the meeting, Ms. Kennedy confirmed her interest in the position by stating: "As some of you may have heard, I've told Governor Paterson that I'd be honored to be considered for the position of United States Senator. I wanted to come Upstate and meet with Mayor Driscoll and others to tell them about my experience and also to learn more about how Washington could help these communities."

Mayor Driscoll had this to say about her visit and her interest in the position: "It's an appointment, not an election. So anyone who wants to come and ask me what are the issues that we see in Syracuse, I'd be happy to share that with them. But, at the end of the day, I'll be respecting the governor's process and that is it's his appointment, it is not an election and I also let Ms. Kennedy know that as well."
