Astorino latest Republican running for governor

May 13, 2021 6:33 am

There may be two more Republicans running for governor, hoping to unseat Democrat Andrew Cuomo, or there might be just one more. On May 11, Astorino lost his attempt for a third term as Westchester County Executive, and then lost a State Senate election in the region in 2020. Meanwhile, Republican Rep. Elise Stefanik won't say whether she will run for governor until Republicans in Congress decide if she will be Liz Cheney's replacement as GOP conference chair. Republicans dumped Cheney May 12 because she has repeatedly told the truth that Democrat Joe Biden was elected president legally in 2020. Stefanik is wrong when she claims there was election fraud, as no evidence has ever emerged, and over 60 courts have ruled otherwise. “When you run for these leadership positions, I'm a big believer that you should run for the term you're in, not for perpetuity, not beyond,” she told the Press Republican. “So I'm running for the term that would finish in the 2022 midterms, and my focus is on winning back the majority" for the GOP in the House of Representatives. Long Island Congressperson Lee Zeldin has already announced that he is running for governor.
