NEW YORK — The Democratic candidate who lost a Long Island congressional seat to Rep.-elect George Santos says the incoming GOP lawmaker should face major investigations over shocking reports he faked big chunks of his résumé.
Robert Zimmerman, who lost the blue-leaning 3rd District seat to Santos in an upset, also fended off sniping from fellow Democrats that he should have uncovered the embarrassing gaping holes in his opponent’s bio.
“The only finger-pointing should be at George Santos,” Zimmerman said on CNN Tuesday. “There has to be an ethics investigation and a Department of Justice investigation.”
