Trump to rally in New York

Former President Trump is actively campaigning for vulnerable House Republicans in New York, emphasizing the importance of early voting as it kicks off across the state. House GOP Conference Chair Elise Stefanik is coordinating efforts to mobilize nearly 1 million Trump supporters, highlighting the significance of battleground districts in the upcoming elections. Notably, Trump will host a virtual rally featuring candidates Alison Esposito and Mike LiPetri, who face tough Democratic opponents, as he seeks to bolster Republican chances in key races. Despite a strong Democratic presence, some Republicans believe they can make gains in traditionally blue areas, with polls indicating competitive races in several districts. However, Trump’s rally in Madison Square Garden will feature only Stefanik from New York, reflecting the challenges for Republicans in the state. As the electoral landscape shifts, the GOP is determined to capitalize on potential vulnerabilities within the Democratic leadership in New York.
