Quick Glance: George Santos ends independent bid for US House seat
  • Following his expulsion from Congress after a bipartisan vote on December 1, George Santos, a Republican representative from New York, is seen leaving the U.S. Capitol. On Tuesday, Santos announced his decision to withdraw his independent candidacy for New York's 1st Congressional District.

  • In order to prevent a split in the Republican ticket between himself and the incumbent Republican candidate, Nick LaLota, in case he secures the Republican nomination after the New York primary on June 25, Santos opted out of an independent run, as reported by Politico.

  • Nancy Goroff and John Avlon are currently competing for the Democratic nomination for the congressional seat during the New York primary.

  • Despite concluding his independent candidacy, Santos hinted at a possible future congressional run. He expressed, 'The future holds countless possibilities, and I am prepared, eager, and capable to step up and fight for my country at any time.'
