New York Gov. Kathy Hochul brushed off rising crime and claimed challenger Lee Zeldin was “hyperventilating” over the key issue Monday — just hours after two subway riders were stabbed, including a good Samaritan who intervened when he saw a woman getting harassed.

During a campaign stop on Manhattan’s Upper West Side, Hochul tried to downplay Zeldin’s criticism of her and former President Bill Clinton for “laughing and joking about subway crimes” at an event Saturday.

“I say: check the source,” Hochul told reporters outside the West 72nd Street subway station at Verdi Square.

They simply will never admit that something is wrong inside the soviet state. It is the one thing they would rather die, than do.

Cuomo didn't pick her for her brains.

I suspect she's put the kibosh on releasing crime video ... and like most democrat cities she's lying on crime statistics. The only one that stays real is the murder rate. Corrupt democrats can't fudge on murder rates like than can on robberies... or rapes.

Remember when Russia used to say serial killers were a Western phenomena, but it turns out Russia had prolific serial killers.

RE: Heaven help NY if Hochul is re-elected.

I’d say electing Hochul will be Heaven’s punishment to New York.

As the Apostle Paul said :

“….since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them up to a debased mind to do what ought not to be done.” ( Romans 1:28 )

I was hoping she should experiment and start jogging at 10:00 at night without her security guards and see what it feels like to be afraid.

I don’t know her background, but just in general, lieutenant governors tend to not be too well known. She may not have been well known statewide when she was elected Lt. Gov.

So this may really be her first statewide election, in which she is well known, and has a record of her own to run on.

The left states that inflation, high gas prices, empty shelves and crime is all a figment of you imagination-—However, my wallet and body believe otherwise.

Inflation is transitory. That means it identifies as a good economy.

When you hear her speak about crime She already believes she's done her sufficient about crime - therefore she's not open to criticism.

That tells a lot about New Yorkers. I strongly believe elected official reflects voters.
