| ALBANY – The NYGOP released the following statement in response to reports that Kathy Hochul’s top two picks for Lieutenant Governor, Queens Borough President Donovan Richards and State Senator Jamaal Bailey, turned her down: “New Yorkers are smart: they know a sinking ship when they see one. Kathy Hochul’s own Lieutenant Governor quit his job to primary her – why would anyone else give up their career to play second banana to the Worst Governor in America? “Kathy Hochul’s legacy will be leaving New York the least affordable, most taxed and least free state in the nation. That’s why her reelection numbers are mired in the 30s. No sane politician would want to be a part of that.” –NYGOP Spokesman David Laska |
