Hochul and Zeldin sparred over crime, abortion rights, whether Trump was 'great' or not — and the Buffalo Bills
“Alvin Bragg is not doing his job. The message will absolutely be sent that if you’re the D.A., it stands for district attorney, not defense attorney,” Zeldin said. “Alvin Bragg can go be a defense attorney, but if he’s not going to do his job, I’m going to do my job and I’m going to remove him as soon as I can.”“I’m not surprised because, in Lee Zeldin’s world, you overturn elections you don’t agree with. You can’t throw out someone who was duly elected,” she said.
“What is so appalling is the sort of general campaign conversion that we’re trying to hear from Lee Zeldin who will say, ‘Nothing really changed the day after thedecision? It’s because I’m the governor of New York and he’s not,” she said.” but repeated his claim that he has no plans to alter the abortion law. “When we woke up the day after thedecision, the law in New York was exactly the same as it was the day before and I’m not going to change that,” he said.
Zeldin instead gave a lengthy answer, listing some of Trump’s accomplishments in office, including “our work on the southern border” and strengthening the U.S.-Israel relationship After the congressman was eventually cut off by the moderators for time, Hochul quipped, “I will take that as a resounding yes and the voters of New York do not agree with you.”On January 6, 2021, the congressman from Long Island voted to object to the certification of Joe Biden’s electoral votes from Pennsylvania and Arizona, part of a Trump-led effort to ultimately keep him in power despite losing the election. Zeldin was asked about the vote and said he would do it again.
“The vote was on two states: Pennsylvania and Arizona. The issue still remains today,” Zeldin said, elaborating that his reasoning had to do with changes made to how the states administered their elections during the pandemic. “You’re gonna have more health emergencies and natural disasters. The United States Constitution says that state legislatures set the administration of election law. That was the question I articulated then. That’s the question I’ll articulate now.
