Trump’s longtime ally, Rep. Elise Stefanik, announced Friday that she is suspending her campaign for governor and will not seek reelection to Congress.
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) — President Donald Trump on Saturday announced he’s endorsing Nassau County’s Republican executive for governor in next fall’s New York race, just a day after the president’s longtime ally Rep. Elise Stefanik announced she was suspending her candidacy.
The endorsement, while not unexpected, could help ensure that Bruce Blakeman, who leads the suburban county on Long Island, doesn’t face a serious contender in his push to win the GOP primary and a chance at a likely faceoff against incumbent Democratic Gov. Kathy Hochul.
“Bruce is MAGA all the way, and has been with me from the very beginning,” Trump said in a post announcing the endorsement on his Truth Social platform.
Stefanik announced Friday that she is suspending her campaign for governor and will not seek reelection to Congress.
