New York State Sen. Dan Stec, a Republican and Navy veteran, is running for Congress. Rep. Elise Stefanik, R-N.Y., who will resign from her House of Representatives seats to become the next U.S. ambassador to the UN, has thrown his hat in the circle. After Stefanik formally leaves Congress, there will be a particular election for New York’s 21st Congressional District. At the end of the day, Stec told WWNY in an interview on December 24 that “it’s about representing the neighborhood, and for the past 12 times in Albany, I know what it means to indicate the area, and if I can do that in Albany I am certain I can do that in Washington.” The North Country local, whose state senate area is within Stefanik’s parliamentary area, claimed he is the best candidate to defeat Republicans because of his high name recognition it. ” My explanation is that I am the most credible. You want to put forward your most likely-to-win prospect if the Republican majority and holding this seats are important to you, Stec told the outlet.” No one can compare the numbers like I can with the amount of district I now represent,” Stec said. In support of his claim that he is best positioned to fight the Democratic candidate in the particular vote, he cited his history in the New York legislature and the 104, 000 vote he won in the previous election for condition congress, which is almost half of the total vote Stefanik won in her bid for re-election. ” I am proud of my track record, my resume, and my principles. I don’t have any votes that I feel embarrassed about having to explain, as perhaps someone from the other party I’ve worked with would have to do, Stec said. IN THE HOUSE, WHO COULD RUN TO REPLACE STEFANIK? Although Stefanik won a sixth term to fill the position of U.N. ambassador in his new cabinet, North County, New York, was chosen by President-elect Donald Trump to represent the district. Stec joins Sticker Mule CEO Anthony Constantino, a political outsider whose claim to fame is a 100-foot” Vote for Trump” sign he installed in upstate New York, in the campaign to be the Republican nominee to succeed Stefanik. Constantino is self-funding his campaign and has pledged$ 2.6 million to the effort. According to WWNY, state Assemblymen Robert Smullen and Christopher Tague, as well as Rensselaer County Executive Steven McLaughlin, are among the potential candidates for the FOX News APP. Assemblyman Billy Jones, whose state district is east of St. Lawrence County, and former Stefanik unsuccessful opponents Matt Castelli and Paula Collins are among the possible Democratic candidates. For the special election, there won’t be a traditional Republican primary. Instead, party chairs in the district will choose both the GOP and Democratic nominees.
