Schack Marching Orders To Carry Treyger’s Petitions
Sources say that Kings County Democratic boss Frank Seddio has ordered Dilia Schack, the outspoken grand dame of Democratic District leaders, to carry City Councilman Mark Treyger‘s petitions for the male Democratic District leader race with no questions asked.
Schack, who recently lost her husband of 41 years, Justice Arthur Schack, heads Coney Island’s Shorefront Democratic Club in the 46th Assembly District. She had backed Treyger in his run for City Council, but was having second thoughts about it after KCP broke the story that Treyger is running for Democratic District Leader.
KCP also reported that Assembly Member Pam Harris was running against Shack for the female leadership position, but Harris refuted the rumor and said she is backing Schack all the way.
Schack, is close to male Democratic District Leader Mark Davidovich, who announced he’s not running for reelection amid rumors that Treyger forced him out.
Either way, Harris and Treyger have their work cut out for them as they face a formidable challenge from Bay Ridge’s Chris McCreight for male district leader and Kate Cucco for the assembly in the September Primary.
