This filing, Congressman Zeldin reported over $3.2 million in receipts from more than 12,000 donations, 92% of which are $100 or less, and currently has over $3.1 million cash on hand. Since announcing his candidacy for Governor, Congressman Zeldin has received nearly 47,000 donations.
Since the beginning of February 2022, Congressman Zeldin has spent nearly $5 million on television and radio ads throughout New York and just announced earlier today that he is currently polling at 41% in the upcoming June 28th Republican Party primary for Governor, which is 23 points ahead of his next closest competitor.
Congressman Zeldin said, “New Yorkers are sick and tired of the attacks on their wallets, safety, freedoms and kids’ education, and they’re putting their money where their mouth is. The unparalleled outpouring of grassroots support from every corner of our state has only grown stronger.
“New Yorkers of all stripes are hitting their breaking point, and this is last stand time. In November, New Yorkers are going to restore a balance of power to Albany. They’re going to usher in a new generation of leadership, and Save Our State.”
