His old district voted for Bush (2004) and McCain (but would have been easily for Gore in 2000).
Redistricting left him a seat that Obama won over Romney 51.6 to 47.2. Making it slightly less Republican than seats held by rats Tim Bishop and Steve Isreal but still pretty Republican for NY.
The rats are not strongly challenging King, and did not in 2012 either.
His strategy.
And little can be done about him there.
LI Republicans love him so he cant be challenged seriously.
He and his role models McCain and Grahamnesty.
He used to my congressman. He was a tough guy ,when he seat was totally safe. Now, he’s just another hack politician.f
