Joined @mikemarzaabc7 to talk about my decision to bow out of the mayor’s race and why I’m urging others to do the same. The stakes are too high to let Mamdani’s dangerous vision for New York go unchallenged.

Speaking to @foxbusiness about why I bowed out of the mayoral race. It’s simple, I did the math. #fox #foxbusiness #newyork #nyc

I will post the letter here shortly. If BOE declines to act, litigation will surely ensue before the ballot-certification deadline on 9/11.

My priority here is clear: I want no voter confusion. The BOE shouldn’t want that either. Neither should any candidate. I hope each candidate will confirm his support for this application.

There is no law or regulation limiting a candidate’s constitutional right to have his name removed. Nor would any such limitation survive judicial scrutiny.

Today, I will submit a request to the Board of Elections to remove my name from the ballot in the Mayor’s race. We need every vote in a one-on-one race. I predict that’s what we will have: the one-on-one race we need to defeat an anti-capitalist, anti-cop and antisemitic agenda in City Hall.

I sat down with Jeff Simmons and Chris Sommerfeldt on City Watch to talk about why Mamdani can’t win in a one-on-one race, and why consolidation is the only path. Catch the full episode below. soundcloud.com/jeff-simmons...

For immediate release. Zohran Mamdani knows he cannot win a one-on-one race.

I joined NY1’s Errol Louis to discuss my decision to end my candidacy, and why I believe Mamdani is a serious threat to New York City. ny1.com/nyc/all-boro...

Thrilled that Stephen Colbert knows my name now. Too little too late!

An incredible night in the ring with NYC Cops & Kids, facing off against my fellow opponent Matthew Bogdanos. Couldn’t think of a better way to spend a Thursday evening than fundraising to support cops and kids here in New York City.

My Zero Tolerance for Rape policy will prioritize prevention and interruption alongside post-crime prosecution and victim support.

New York City faces a serious violent crime issue, with rape increasing by 52% over the past 15 years and felony assaults at a 25-year high. Ignoring this problem is not an option. Every New Yorker deserves safety.
