On a single day last month, “tough on crime” New York gubernatorial candidate Lee Zeldin did not even vote on three important crime bills that came before the House of Representatives.
As his campaign for governor seeks to translate the growing fear of crime into rising poll numbers,“I want to do everything I possibly can in the first 100 minutes,” Zeldin has said. “I want to have a very active first day.”
Zeldin’s campaign and his congressional office did not respond to numerous inquiries about why he did not vote, whether he was on the House floor, or what he was doing instead. “Mr. Speaker, real life is quite different from television or political buffoonery. Half of gun murders in the United States go unsolved. Victims are too often left with no justice and their families with little support.”“Who amongst us believes that murderers or violent criminals should not be arrested and prosecuted to the full extent of the law?” she asked. “I pray, Mr. Speaker, that no one in this chamber really believes that.
“This isn't just about the President of the United States. This is about people on the left and their double standards. that you've been pointing out. Doing the right thing too, and supporting our law enforcement 365, not just when politically expedient.”
