Grimm is accused to failing to report more than 1 million dollars in income from his restaurant, which showed losses on his tax return, plus hiding wages to avoid paying employment taxes. How did Grimm pay his bills, if his restaurant was losing money? From the cash he took out of the till and failed to report of course. Grimm will be resigning soon. He's done. He will plea bargain, and spend a couple of years in jail. So the Dems are getting a bit ahead of themselves here in putting this seat in their column. They just won't have Grimm to kick around much longer.
His name will stay on the ballot, methinks. I suspect Grimm will act like a typical Staten Islander and try to fight it out.
