<div><p>The Stonewall Democrats endorsed City Council candidate Francisco Moya over Julissa Ferreras last night. The two are vying to replace Hiram Monserrate, who is now in the State Senate. </p><p> The club vote, according to one person there, was 23 to 4. </p><p> Stonewall is based in Manhattan, but has an interest in the race, since this district includes a sizable gay and lesbian population. </p><p>
Also, there are some tributary political lines connecting the two areas. Moya is being supported by Alfonso Quiroz, a City Council candidate in a neighboring district who is also a member of Stonewall. Quiroz’s opponent in that race is Danny Dromm, a well-respected Democratic district leader that has endorsed Ferreras.</p><img src="http://admatch-syndication.mochila.com/images/ad.gif?aid=41452057&bid=informcom" /></div><div id="copyright"><div>
