Vote for prosperity & security: The Post’s endorsements for NY’s House races

New York state’s Republican House incumbents deserve to retain their seats, and The Post strongly endorses their re-election. We have already made the case for Rep. Mike Lawler in the swinging 17th Congressional District, where he faces a tight race against the carpetbagging Cait Conley, but the rest of the delegation merits plaudits, too. Nicole Maliotakis , New York City’s highest ranked elected Republican, repping Staten Island and Bay Ridge, has solidified her hold over the once-purple 11th CD through steady advocacy for her constituents on immigration enforcement and opposition to the rising socialist tide across the city.

NYC Traffic Violations Bureau: The Deck Is Stacked Against You
