“They want to back a winner, and they will when they vote for me” in the June 28 primary, Zeldin said.
Tuesday’s third and final New York gubernatorial debate devolved into a round of finger-pointing over conservative cred as putative frontrunner Rep. Lee Zeldin insisted he was the best choice to defeat Democratic Gov. Kathy Hochul this fall.
Zeldin’s attack appeared to be aimed directly at businessman Harry Wilson and former Westchester County Executive Rob Astorino, both of whom argued they have special appeal to general election voters — despite a losing record at the ballot box. But Zeldin noted Tuesday that Astorino subsequently lost a 2014 bid for governor, a 2017 campaign to win back the county exec seat, and a 2020 election for state Senate.
Former White House staffer Andrew Giuliani – who appeared on stage in person Tuesday night after participating virtually in the first two debates due to not being vaccinated against COVID-19 – has never run for elected office, and Newsmax moderator Eric Bolling suggested at one point that the son of former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani would have never made it to the debate stage if not for his famous last name.
“Unfortunately, it was people in the State Senate in New York, in Albany, like Lee Zeldin, who were voting for the Cuomo budgets the entire time that got us to this point.” Astorino said while pivoting away from a question on inflation.
