ALBANY, N.Y. — Lee Zeldin believes a red wave will once again wash over Long Island and help the GOP gain seats in the state Senate.
The Republican gubernatorial candidate, congressman and Suffolk County native is confident that his fellow conservatives will gain ground in the Legislature by winning back the majority of Senate seats representing suburban and eastern Long Island on Election Day.
“We’re going to break the supermajority in the state Senate and state Assembly,” Zeldin, who is hoping to unseat Gov. Kathy Hochul, a Democrat, told reporters at an upstate rally last week. “I’ll tell you what, if it’s that good of a night on Tuesday do not be surprised if you start talking about the state Senate actually changing hands.
