Don’t call it a comeback… ok, call it a comeback. Former Rep. Tom Suozzi (D-NY) is eyeing a return to Congress, and he desires his outdated seat again. And the person retaining that seat? Rep. George Santos (R-NY).
In a commentary posted to Twitter/X, Suozzi announced his intention to reclaim the third congressional district of New York:
The insanity in Washington, DC, and the absurdity of George Santos ultimate in the US Congress is obvious to everyone.
me. I’ve never sat on the sidelines. From the cost-of-dwelling to immigration, crime, local weather alternate, combating terrorism within the Heart East and globally, and simply helping people, we want extra common sense and compassion and not more chaos and senseless combating.
Serial liar Santos, a.k.a. Anthony Devolder, is presently underneath federal indictment on 13 prices of fraud and prior to now confronted fraud fees in Brazil prior to striking a plea deal.
The third congressional district of New York covers parts of Queens and Long Island’s Nassau and Suffolk Counties. While a Republican currently occupies the seat, the moderate Suozzi was a mainstay in native Long Island and state-degree New York politics prior to running for Congress in 2016. He was once re-elected in 2018, then left for an unsuccessful gubernatorial run. It’s an extraordinarily “red” district, and although Santos received the seat in 2022 (prior to all of his lies had been exposed), it was a district that voted for President Joe Biden in 2020. And, much more significantly, it’s a district where Suozzi beat Santos through 12.four points the identical year.
It’s a very prone seat for the GOP, particularly given the extreme dissatisfaction of Santos’ ingredients.
