The Associated Press projects that Rep. Lee Zeldin has won New York State’s Republican gubernatorial nomination.
Zeldin, a four-term lawmaker who represents New York’s 1st Congressional District, which covers the eastern half of Long Island, topped a field that also included Rob Astorino, the former Westchester County executive and 2014 GOP gubernatorial nominee; Andrew Giuliani, who served in former President Donald Trump’s administration and is the son of former New York City mayor and former Trump attorney Rudy Giuliani; and Harry Wilson, a businessman, investor and restructuring expert who poured millions of his own money into his gubernatorial bid.
Zeldin will now face off in November against Democratic Gov. Kathy Hochul, the state’s former lieutenant governor who was sworn in last August as New York’s first female governor, after three-term Democratic Gov. Andrew Cuomo resigned.
The Crown Heights Republican Committee (CHRC) endorsed Zeldin.
In a statement, committee leaders Ari Rimler and Max Coen said:
“Congressman Zeldin has shown time and time again his strong belief in the constitution and the freedoms that come along with it.
“Our neighborhood and city is in dire need of someone who can bring safety and security, and Lee Zeldin has a track record of strong support for law enforcement, and has rallied against the bail reform laws that has seen so many criminals back on the street.”
“In addition, he has shown himself to be a good friend of our community and the greater Jewish community, supporting religious school choice for parents, as well as supporting Pro-Israel legislation and Anti-BDS policies.”
Go ari! I knew anything u backed would turn into a winner!
Time to stop being a tail to Democrats and vote Republican.
Fabulous!
Yidden! Stop voting for Democrats! They do NOT have Torah values.
They want abortion on demand, high taxes, high crime mobs, no police, no right to defend yourself, etc.
Remember Crown Heights in the 90’s when there were police everywhere? You could even ride the subway. Giuliani (a Republican) had it under control. Think of that on a State level–going back to law and order.
Vote for Zeldin in the general election!
You claim democrats do not have torah values then proceed to name policies that have nothing to do with Torah. Just your personal preference of policies.
And bringing up the 90s as if you can’t ride the subway anymore is laughable. Many people ride the subway everyday with no problems.
And contrary to popular belief, abortion is permissible according to Torah is various cases and with these new laws many Jews will run into birth complications.
This guy is getting my vote!
This guy is a Cuomo devotee who slapped the “R” next to his name so he can swindle the vote. But Republicans never learn, and neither do you.
Remember we all can vote our heart we do not and should not listen to the few people who claim they represent crown heights when they don’t I myself am a registered republican but in the general election it makes no difference we all must vote lew zeldin in and let the 3 crown heights askanim stay and take a picture with the democrats
