“They’ll issue a rebuke of him for running as a complete liar in an effort to resuscitate the image of the party,” said one person familiar with the pending announcement by Nassau County GOP Chair Joe Cairo and other Republican elected officials, speaking on condition of anonymity.
That person told POLITICO in an interview that the announcement is necessary to help Republicans win future elections in New York’s 3rd congressional district, which is a swing seat formerly held by Democrat Tom Suozzi.
