GLEN COVE, N.Y. — When Judy Wiesel was part of the Greenvale Civic Association years ago, Tom Suozzi, then a local official, came to talk to the group about concerns they had about widening a road in the Long Island town.
“He came down to our civic association and explained what was happening and how the issues that we were worried about were going to be alleviated,” Wiesel, who now lives in Roslyn, said at a Suozzi campaign event on Sunday afternoon.
Voters like Wiesel, who considers herself a moderate Democrat and “a big Suozzi supporter,” will be key as Suozzi, who previously served as a mayor here and a Nassau County executive before winning a seat in Congress, tries for a comeback in the Feb. 13 special election to replace the expelled Republican George Santos.
