NYS Senator Bill Larkin�s campaign said Friday that it never authorized a mailer purportedly sent out by the Village of Kiryas Joel urging voters to support the senator.

�That�s bogus as far as we know,� said Ralph Caruso, Larkin�s campaign manager.

The mailer, which showed up in district residents� mailboxes earlier this week, urges voters to support �our candidate� for state senate and praises Larkin as one who �has helped and will continue to help our community.�

But it cites as an example of that help an $11.5 million women�s center for which Larkin says he had no role in obtaining funding.

Larkin, a 20-year incumbent Republican, is being challenged by Monroe town Councilman Harley Doles, a Democrat.

Caruso said Larkin�s campaign has �no physical proof connecting (the mailer) to Harley Doles and his campaign.� But he noted the mailer�s postal permit number was issued in Brooklyn, where Doles has drawn a substantial amount of financial support.
