Rep. George Santos is the subject of several inquiries and quite unpopular in his district. But there are other reasons he could have for running again.

Make your contribution now and help Gothamist thrive in 2023.Queens and Long Island Rep. George Santos is officially running again. While he faces steep odds – having lied to voters about a number of points in his life story– donors of his reelection campaign could help him fend off legal fees as several investigations into his actions continue.

Santos, who hinted he would run again after opening a campaign committee last month, is currently the subject of several inquiries. Early this year, the House ethics committee began reviewing a complaint over his campaign finance practices. “The motivations can range from he really wants to vindicate himself to continuing to raise money to cover some of the costs to responding to some of these investigations, and he can only do that as a candidate,” said Daniel I. Weiner, director of elections, government and democracy at the Brennan Center for Justice.

why Why WHY would anyone vote for a thief

Because there are enough fools to still vote for this pathological liar.

Republican

Money

It’s the money.

It's kind of amusing (but not) that in addition to not prosecuting huge numbers of everyday crimes, they have also decided to ignore public corruption crimes as well.

Santos picked the right time, I'll say that, for a conniving schemer to enter office as a Republican. Wait, when was the last 'bad' time for that again? Pretty sure the history books in Blue States don't go that far back!

FFS. Unbelievable-not so much.
