Elise Stefanik Says Trump Is Dominating New York Swing Districts Biden ‘Won By 15 Points’

Republican New York Rep. Elise Stefanik said Monday that Republican nominee Donald Trump is leading in all of the swing congressional districts that President Joe Biden won by landslides in the 2020 election.

Trump has made inroads with New York’s electorate, especially among black, Hispanic and young voters, resulting in a narrower lead for Vice President Kamala Harris in comparison to President Joe Biden’s in 2020, according to a The New York Times/Siena College survey. Stefanik said on Fox Business’ “Mornings with Maria Bartiromo” that the former president’s “historical support” in swing districts will help hold the Republican majority in the House.

“New York has decayed under the weaponization of Alvin Bragg, [Letisha] James and the horrible leadership of [Governor] Kathy Hochul. You have the crime crisis, the illegal migrant crisis right here, so it is the epicenter of just the far-left radical failed Democrat policies and President Trump has earned historic support,” Stefanik said. “Do you know in every single swing congressional district, Maria, President Trump is winning. These are districts that Joe Biden won by 15 points in some cases in 2020, President Trump is now polling ahead, which is why the telephone rally he did the night before to a million voters across key congressional districts in New York, he knows that the House majority will run right through New York, but this is a growing Republican Party, a historic Republican Party in support of President Trump.”

Stefanik said Trump’s gains among black, Hispanic and Jewish voters across the state could lead to historic victories for Republicans, which has caused Harris and other “desperate” Democrats to equate Trump to former Nazi leader Adolf Hitler.

“The highest rate of African American voters [are] supporting President Trump. The most significant Hispanic American voters supporting President Trump, the highest percentage,” Stefanik said. “Working class Americans, Jewish voters, I mean, this is like the big tent party. Kamala Harris and Hillary Clinton are so desperate that they’re calling him fascist and Hitler. It’s a disgrace, the American people are smart, but we have to get out the vote to get this done.”

Harris leads Trump in New York 66% to 27%, a significantly lower margin than Biden’s 76% to 23% victory against the former president in 2020, according to The New York Times. These numbers represent the worst results for a Democratic candidate in the state since 1988.

Democrats also fared worse in the 2022 midterm elections by only winning the state’s popular vote by 9 points, while Biden won the popular vote by 23 points, according to the Times.

The former president held a gigantic rally at Madison Square Garden with a sellout crowd, which included key speakers such as tech billionaire Elon Musk, former First Lady Melania Trump and Daily Caller News Foundation co-founder Tucker Carlson.
