Endorsement: Mike LiPetri for US Congress Republican Primary, NY-3

Two years ago, former Assemblyman Mike LiPetri almost defeated Congressman Tom Suozzi - coming within three (3) points.

Now, LiPetri wants a re-match, and has raised over $1 million and built a campaign team across this Queens, Nassau, Suffolk north shore district.

LiPetri has the endorsements of the three county Republican organizations, is running as a MAGA-Republican, and is already the nominee of the critically important Conservative Party.

Facing LiPetri in the GOP primary is Gregory Hach, a successful injury attorney.

Hach tried to run two years ago, but failed to gather enough petition signatures. He learned that lesson - gathering enough signatures this year - but still forgot two others: that you have to unify the Republican and Conservative lines to win; and you need the support of Joe Cairo, Chairman of the Nassau GOP. He has neither.

The Leader endorses Mike LiPetri in the Republican primary for US Congress in NY-3.
