The Post endorses in four Long Island races for the House: Nicolas LaLota, Andrew Garbarino, George Santos & Anthony D’Esposito

By putting down the Hochulmander and imposing actually nonpartisan redistricting, state courts have given New York 4 aggressive Home races on Lengthy Island. With public security, hovering inflation and a sagging economic system the highest points on voters’ minds, the decision in every is simple.

In New York’s 1st Congressional District, we promote Republican Nicolas LaLota. The previous Navy officer is the son and grandson of cops with robust expertise in Amityville city authorities and within the Suffolk legislature and as a state Senate staffer. He’s a transparent voice for fiscal sanity, rational power insurance policies and getting robust on crime. His Democratic opponent, county legislator Bridget Fleming, is working virtually completely on the irrelevant subject of abortion rights.

Within the central Island district, NY-2, incumbent Rep. Andrew Garbarino strives to work throughout the aisle (he was one in every of solely 13 GOP Home votes for President Joe Biden’s infrastructure invoice and one in every of eight for the Bipartisan Background Checks Act) however is firmly for pro-growth and pro-small-business reforms — and for public security, together with stopping MS-13 and different violent gangs earlier than they attain the US border. His opponent, 30-year public-school trainer Jackie Gordon, emphasizes gun management and defending abortion rights.

The race in NY-3, together with northern Nassau and a little bit of jap Queens, options two homosexual candidates. Republican George Santos, the son of Brazilian immigrants who turned an investor, has centered his marketing campaign on preventing crime, making America energy-independent and selling financial progress to maintain Lengthy Island reasonably priced. His opponent, longtime Democratic Social gathering activist Robert Zimmerman, is one other abortion-abortion-abortion candidate.

NY-4 covers the remainder of Nassau County. Retired NYPD detective and Hempstead City Councilman Anthony D’Esposito has targeted on the issues that matter most to the voters: tax reduction, public security and decreasing the burden on the center class. The Democrat, Laura Gillen, is thrashing the pro-abortion and anti-MAGA drums.

Except for their obsession with points that voters aren’t prioritizing, these Dems additionally stand out for working away from Gov. Kathy Hochul: They know their occasion is behind New York’s greatest issues, however hope you gained’t give it some thought on Nov. 8 or when early voting begins Oct. 29.

However Democrats in Washington and Albany are destroying this nation and this state. To show issues round, Lengthy Island must vote Republican down the road.
