Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman, who is Jewish and the Republican nominee for New York Governor, visited 770 Eastern Parkway on Wednesday.
Blakeman will face incumbent Democratic Governor Kathy Hochul in the upcoming elections for Governor.
Blakeman, the first Jewish county executive in Nassau County’s history and a strong Trump ally, has been actively courting Jewish and Orthodox communities as he challenges Hochul in what polls show as a competitive but uphill battle for the GOP in deep-blue New York.
The general election is set for November 3, 2026, with Blakeman formally nominated by the state GOP and Conservative Party earlier this year.
