Stefanik Says She Will Win N.Y. Governor’s Race Behind Common-Sense Coalition
Stefanik aims to unseat Hochul by uniting Republicans, independents, and Democrats to address affordability, safety, and tax concerns in New York, citing two decades of Democratic rule.
- Earlier this month, Rep. Elise Stefanik announced her run for governor of New York, promising to defeat Gov. Kathy Hochul by building a `common-sense` coalition.
- Framing her candidacy, Stefanik argued Kathy Hochul is `the worst governor in America` and blamed soaring costs on two decades of single-party Democratic rule amid an affordability crisis.
- Stefanik pointed to Hochul's endorsement, saying Hochul `will bend the knee to Zohran Mamdani` and `did not condemn a single statement he made`, legitimizing Mamdani's candidacy.
- Deploying urgent rhetoric, Stefanik warned `There is not a single region of New York state where the people of New York support Kathy Hochul` and said New Yorkers `do not want to see New York state fall to communism`.
- Looking toward the calendar, Stefanik is targeting next year with a coalition of Republicans, independents and Democrats to win by promoting common sense and affordability.
