"I'm going to be working my butt off to make sure Elise Stefanik wins" -Councilwoman Inna Vernikov

"If God forbid Mamdani should win, I'm going to be encouraging Republicans to stay in NY because we have a governor's race coming up & I think that we can win & I'm going to be working my butt off to make sure if it's Elise Stefanik that she wins."
