For the good of the party, and the district, I have decided to withdraw my candidacy. I look forward to vigorously and enthusiastically supporting the GOP candidate in 2022.
I have been truly humbled by and will be forever grateful for all of the support I have received these past few years. It has been an honor getting to meet so many of you as I traveled across the district.
For weeks the race was too close to call and the margin on Election Day was miniscule. Why? Because we had the better message. With your help, I will have the resources this cycle to deliver that message to those I could not personally meet in the last election.
Congratulations to Rep. Delgado on his victory in this hard-fought campaign. We live in divisive times and I am proud of the fact that we kept the campaign and debates civil and focused on the issues. I am looking forward to the rematch in 2022.
I just called Congressman Delgado to congratulate him on winning a second term to the House of Representatives.Β
While it is close, it has become clear that when all of the legal votes are counted we will come up just a bit short.
NY-19 is my home. I was born here, I was raised here, and this is where I am raising my children. I have always fought for her and will always continue to do so.
