Lt. Gov. Antonio Delgado won't seek re-election with Hochul

New York Lt. Gov. Antonio Delgado says he won’t run for re-election with Gov. Kathy Hochul in 2026.
wnyt.com wnyt.com


The response from heil hochul's office is disgusting:

“Today, Antonio Delgado finally said out loud what has been obvious for quite some time: he is simply not interested in doing the job of the Lieutenant Governor of the State of New York. Governor Hochul had already begun taking steps to identify a new running mate for 2026. We will also be reallocating responsibilities within the administration to ensure that important initiatives that had been within the Lieutenant Governor’s office are no longer neglected. Governor Hochul wishes him the best in his future endeavors.”

Once you factor in the democrat election theft, voter fraud and their low IQ voting block, I figure a shit will win. I hope I'm wrong

Given that Hochul couldn't cheat and win at this point and he knows it, and being the arrogant (and ignorant) fuck that he is, sees this and figures he has a better shot at the throne.
Listen, Zelden came precariously close to beating the buck-toothed bush bitch the last time, but he's got a big time Federal gig, so the GOP under Cox (god help us) better start vetting a rock solid candidate...by the time of the next governors race if the Trump Admin has things going well, even the "anyone as long as they're Blue" crowd might just shift right for a change.

Hochul is very similar NYC Mayor Eric Adams in this regard. Both are progressive liberals who are deeply unpopular with voters and will likely not win reelection unless something drastic changes. Delgado dropping off the ticket shows that the Hochul Administration is a sinking ship and virtually everyone at the top knows it.

Her fight with the Corrections Officers is a clear case study of this. She's trying to shore up her progressive credentials with the left-wing NYC crowd (aka criminals and their apologists) to try and garner votes when she has a completely underwhelming record as Governor. Seriously, what has she accomplished of significance other than the "Concealed Carry Improvement Act" or congestion pricing? Even extremely anti-gun liberals are looking for other issues from their elected officials besides gun control and a shit ton of commuters are PISSED with having to pay even more just to get to work. Even with the mainstream media (looking at you NY Times and Albany Times Union) running interference for her, the polls are showing how deeply unpopular she is. She's doubling down on the far-left positions to try to shore herself up but it's a losing battle.

What's interesting is that Eric Adams went the opposite direction and basically became Donald Trump's bitch and is allowing ICE into Riker's Island and supporting other ICE raids in the City. He was already completely ineffectual with his job and knows the liberals are abandoning him so he's sucking on Trump's schlong to at least save his skin from federal prosecution. He ain't going to win reelection and I'm still not convinced he won't go to jail. His only accomplishment is that he made Bill DiBlasio look competent in comparison which absolutely no one thought possible

SIDE NOTE: I know someone who used to work at a swanky Manhattan restaurant that had to serve Adams and his entourage before he became mayor and she said he was the biggest, pompous ass dick she'd even had the displeasure to meet and could tell he was on the take even back then. Came in 15 minutes before closing, demanded to be seated, stayed several hours, purchased all kinds of fancy and expensive food and alcohol and didn't leave a tip. I also know a former NYPD chief of traffic who knew him when Adams was a cop - he really was a glorified meter maid - and Adams told him that the only reason he started 100 Blacks in Law Enforcement was so he would have something to run on when he ran for mayor.

My prediction for the NYS Governors Race is that the Democratic Party will force Hochul to step down to avoid another Joe Biden situation and probably try to get Letitia James in. She's worse than Hochul because at least she's mildly competent and has the right skin tone for the DEI crowd. If the NYS GOP gets their act together (I have no confidence that they will) they could actually win an election with the right person.

As for NYC Mayor, there's not a snowball's chance in hell that a Republican will win that race anytime soon. Things will have to get to 1970s levels of crime and decay or worse before people there finally pull their heads out of their asses. My guess is that our good friend Andrew Cuomo will throw his hat into the ring and will likely win the Democratic Primary and as a result get to move into Gracie Mansion.

Your Leader, your Governor will NOT make it to the re-election. She will be removed from office or resign prior to that day in 2026.

Antonio Delgado will be sworn in, sooner than later.

Zeldin may come to be governor of NYS and I agree he has a good shot. The NYS GOP party is essentially non-existent. The senator running against Gillibrand I had never heard of and saw zero advertising for except a few lawn signs. I couldn’t even tell you his name now and Zeldin was like that last time. I knew a bit about him by the time the election rolled around but no one said anything about him for months before. This is our chance to get it and do something with it. They need to spend some money because it would be a huge win and maybe they could do some good.
If they win they need to leave all the social crap alone and work on quality of life things like crime, homelessness, drugs, and affordability.

I’ve also said this. I say she will be cuomo’d. They knew all along what cuomo was doing and Hochul would go more left for them so they brought out what was known for a long time.

I mostly agree but I’m not sure on the corrections guards fight. I see very little support for her and a lot for them on line. I think even most NYC liberals see what the far left policies have done to make their quality of life get worse. The crime, filth, homelessness, and subway safety are huge concerns for them. Add in the illegals taking over NYC and it’s a recipe for disaster for the left.

Even if somehow Zeldon was to take the Governorship, it would have not a lot of impact on the state of the state unless the Republicans can get back at least the Senate. They seem to be too stupid or corrupt to concentrate on that fact. Before the crooked dominion voting we had Volker table every stupid democrat gun legislation in the senate never to be heard from again. Since dominion, republicans have not won any crucial election's and have lost the senate.

Ex WNY as of 08/2018. Screw FUAC & FUKH too!
Hate to sound like a broken record here, BUT... NYS is a lost cause.

I can't see NYC voting in a Republican in the next 50 years. Absolutely NEVER going to happen.

And as for the state? Forget it. While there might be a slim possibility of a Republican getting voted in as Governor someday, it will do absolutely nothing of any consequence for Republicans and conservatives BECAUSE the Senate is gone to the DEMS, and is never coming back.

And the Assembly??? Forget it, and then some. Hell, -what was there ONE Republican elected Governor since Rockefeller, and that was Pataki as I recall. He only got voted in because Andrew's dad, aka the "Hamlet on the Hudson" had fucked up the state so badly that people finally revolted just enough to put Pataki, - a virtual unknown, and a RINO into office. He didn't achieve much of ANYTHING.

About the only thing I remember Pataki for was finally getting asshole Cuomo's stranglehold on the state 55 MPH speed limit slowly done away with. Something we lived with since the 1970's. I swear that during the 40+ years I spent driving the NYS Thruway, that I cursed that motherfucker EVERY time I passed a 55MPH speed limit sign. Fuck him and his whole damn family!

No, New Yorkistan is a lost cause. Kind of like a star getting sucked into a black hole.

Stokes; I hope you don't mind, but I used poetic license to better describe the left wing NY electorate. ;)

Delgado is a carpet bagging downstate shitweasel with zero name recognition. If he gets anywhere in a gubernatorial election, it’s evidence of manufactured votes.
