A whopping 76 percent of suburban New York residents say they view Santos unfavorably, while just 8 percent say they have a favorable view of the Republican lawmaker.
. A nonprofit group called the Campaign Legal Center, for instance, filed a complaint with the Federal Election Commission earlier this month alleging that Santos’s “brazen lies” — including his willful concealment of “the true [funding] sources of his campaign” — warrant action from the government agency.
Santos is under investigation by New York prosecutors, who are looking at whether any of his documented lies broke campaign laws., due to inconsistencies on his campaign financial disclosures. “At a minimum, it is apparent that he did not file timely disclosure reports for his most recent campaign,” a statement from New York Democratic Reps. Dan Goldman and Ritchie Torres said. “Moreover, his own public statements have contradicted some information included in the 2022 financial disclosure and confirmed that the 2022 financial disclosure failed to disclose other required information.
While the poll didn’t go into district-by-district results on its questions, it did ask respondents to disclose whether they lived in cities, rural areas or the suburbs. A majority of Santos’s district is suburban.
