Chris Hayes: The Stakes Of The New York Governor's Race Between Zeldin And Hochul - All In - MSNBC



Chris Hayes: If a Republican congressman who voted to support the insurrection wins a statewide race in New York, it means there's no penalty for endorsing Trump's attacks on our democracy. It's up to New York voters to decide if that's the message they want to send nationally. - Aired on 10/31/2022.

He's the far right Rep. from NY-1, as far away from NY-21 as you can get. I'd never heard of him, had to look him up, but when I drove up north today, there was a huge sign for him saying "Vote Zeldin, Save New York."

lies were incredible and the threats of violence permeated the district.

He is a very dirty player and now he has the whole party behind him.

So do all these people with signs here in the North Country (District 21) actually know about him?? The big sign I saw today was when I was driving up north through Lake George!

which works to his advantage. He has made statements locally that sounded good, but a week later he votes the other way in DC.

I hope he loses, not only because he's despicable, but Hochul has done a great job so far, and it would be a shame if she lost her job to a scumbucket like Zeldin.
