Tell me this case does not have “politically motivated” written all over it.

Rep. Lee Zeldin (R-N.Y.) is now under investigation.

He found out that the NY DA’s office is investigating fraud related to his candidacy.

Here We Go

The issue at hand was initially thought to have been a clerical error.

Sheets with signatures that had been photocopied were included in his nomination filings.

Now, however, the issue is being revisited, conveniently as Hochul is facing pay-to-play allegations.

The report states, “Investigators initially suspected the roughly 11,000 duplicate signatures, which were photocopied at the state Republican Party headquarters in Albany, had been inserted in the petitions due to a clerical error.

“But investigators are now examining whether there are potential criminal charges because it appears the duplicate signatures were deliberately mixed into the petitions, a source with knowledge of the investigation said.”

The filing was handled by the New York State Republican Party, and has no direct connection to Zeldin, but that did not stop Hochul from firing off an attack.

Hochul’s campaign stated, “After months of non-answers and finger-pointing, New Yorkers deserve to know who exactly was involved in Xerox Zeldin’s election fraud scandal.

“The facts here are clear: Zeldin’s campaign manager knowingly signed off on 47 volumes of petitions containing more than 11,000 photocopied signatures.

“As a congressman, Lee Zeldin supported legal efforts to overturn the 2020 election and pushed baseless conspiracy theories under the banner of ‘election integrity,’ but apparently that doesn’t apply to his own campaign.

“His campaign is now implicated in a criminal investigation for attempting to defraud voters and Zeldin needs to be held accountable.”

This sure sounds like Hochul gave the nod to the DA to make something happen to help her out.

The timing is just too suspicious, especially considering everyone thought this issue was put to bed.
