'''Staten Island''' is one of the five [[borough|boroughs]] of [[New York City]].  The island, much smaller than [[Manhattan]], is also much more residential than commercial, in comparison to Manhattan.  It is located directly south of Manhattan Island and Southwest of Brooklyn. Staten Island is connected to Manhattan by ferries and to Brooklyn by several bridges. Staten Island is the only borough of New York City not to be connected to the city's extensive subway system, and instead relies on busses and its own "Staten Island Railway" system, both managed by the same Transit Authority as the subway. Staten Island is coterminous with Richmond County. It is a relatively Conservative borough compared to the rest of New York, and went to John McCain 52%-47% in the 2008 Presidential election.[[[<http://www.cnn.com/ELECTION/2008/results/county/#NYP00map>]]]
