Time for Republicans to unite behind Zeldin and save NY

By NY Post Editorial Board

Congratulations to Rep. Lee Zeldin for his victory in Tuesday night’s primary. Now comes the real battle: Unseating Gov. Kathy Hochul, who cruised to victory on her side of the political ledger.

New Yorkers unfortunately have seen what one-party rule has wrought. A Democratic-controlled Albany and a left-wing mayor managed to set back New York City decades when it comes to quality of life, increasing crime, homelessness and disorder. And they have no shame about it. New Mayor Eric Adams may be taking a more moderate course, but the progressives are threatening any legislator who dares recognize that “no bail” legislation went too far.

We desperately need a check on their power. All indications point to a red wave this November, and we’re confident Zeldin can unify the Republican Party, take back the governor’s mansion, and refill the “veto” pen with ink.

I'd like to see Mr. Zeldin win, but the odds are against him.

The state may have actually become "blue-er" since the covid epidemic began, with more traditional-minded residents fleeing south...
