“Let me be clear. As governor, I will not change and could not change New York’s abortion law,” Zeldin says.
“Hochul already knows that. But she tried to deceive you anyhow, which tells you everything you’ll ever need to know about Kathy Hochul.”
Republican gubernatorial candidate Lee Zeldin vows he “will not” move to overturn New York’s abortion rights law.That had — until now — left an opening for the Hochul campaign to hammer away at fears among women voters in the state and detract from issues like rising crime and Hochul’s inaction on changing state bail reforms that have left many repeat offenders on the streets.
“Kathy Hochul knows, the more you focus on her record — rising crime, pay-to-play corruption, higher cost of living — the less you’ll want her as governor. So she needs to change the subject. Her latest attempt — trying to deceive New Yorkers about abortion,” Zeldin’s voice over says over images of Hochul before he makes his “will not change” pledge.
One surprised Republican consultant said Zeldin was taking a “bold risk” that could shake up the race.
