New York Republican Gubernatorial Nominee Bruce Blakeman to Visit Crown Heights Sukkah
by CrownHeights.info
Nassau County Executive and New York Republican gubernatorial nominee Bruce Blakeman is scheduled to visit Crown Heights Monday evening for a Sukkos visit hosted by the Crown Heights Republican Committee (CHRC), together with the Jewish community.
Blakeman, who has served as Nassau County Executive since 2022, is the Republican nominee for governor of New York. He formally accepted the Republican Party’s nomination earlier this year and is running against Democratic Gov. Kathy Hochul in the November election.
The Crown Heights gathering is being billed as a “Sukkos Holiday Night Celebration” and will provide an opportunity for members of the local Jewish community to meet with the gubernatorial candidate during Chol Hamoed Sukkos.
The visit comes as Blakeman campaigns statewide ahead of the November 2026 election. The Nassau County executive has made appearances with Republican leaders and has centered his campaign on issues including taxes, affordability and public safety.
Will CHRCC Hand Blakeman a Free Pass to Be Silent on Vital Brooklyn Issues?
NYS Governor appoints 7 of 9 of the directors of NYS ESD which funds Vital Brooklyn 681 Clarkson development, which the community is against.
NYS Governor appoints the commissioner of NYS HCR that’s funding Vital Brooklyn Kingsbrook which is the reason 4 cutting off access to the Kingsbrook synagogue.
Will CHRCC get Blakeman to commit to make changes on these local issues or not?
