arly voting began Saturday in parts of Queens and on Long Island in the special election to replace ex-Rep. George Santos, who was expelled from the House of Representatives.

Democrat Tom Suozzi, a former congressman and former Nassau County executive, and current Republican County Legislator Mazi Pilip are running to fill the seat, which has been vacant since Dec. 1.

Voters in New York's 3rd congressional district, covering parts of Nassau County and Queens, have been flooded with mailings and TV ads leading up to the special election on Feb. 13.

Probably about 2:1 in favor of the Rat, who had nearly 4x the cash to work with as the Republican did.

It’s a narrowly *Democrat* district to begin with, and Santos’ win in 2022 was — like several other GOP House wins in NY that year — a fluke.

Democrats are normally way more motivated and organized in important special elections than Republicans are, and this one appears to be no exception.

I predict a 30point win for the Democrat.

That’s a bit extreme considering that it’s only supposedly a D+2 district though registered Democrats outnumber registered Republicans by more like 10%.

Even a 15-20 point loss seems unlikely, but we’ll see how motivated the Rats are and how far the Republicans have their heads up their asses.

Remember, the media and other Democrats demand that GOP voters in this district feel shame and “do the right thing” by repudiating their prior votes for Santos.

Sadly, a large portion of those voters will likely comply with the media’s demands and go back to voting Democrat. Now and in November as well.

Suozzi has name recognition and, believe it or not , she’s a registered Democrat!
I will be shocked if she even comes close.

Propaganda is effective, unfortunately. We need to find other ways. We have Elon Musk and X (formerly Twitter). But that's not enough.

We need to do more to get the message out. And bypass the narrative provided by the MSM.

Did you read the part about early voting?

The fix is already in.

Add to that NYS recently went all mail-in...

But here’s the question...

If NYS is so true blue, especially Gotham, why does Deep State need to steal our elections?
