Smullen Drops Out, Constantino Heads to Election | US News
Description
Robert Smullen has pulled out of the race for New York’s 21st Congressional District, citing a new path to serve the public after a White House meeting with President Trump—just days after losing the GOP primary to Anthony Constantino. With Smullen out, the November general election now pits Constantino, Trump’s endorsed printer-turned-candidate, against Democrat Blake Gendebien, a dairy farmer who won his party’s nomination. Gendebien’s campaign is zeroing in on Constantino’s business moves, like layoffs and automation, while touting his own rural healthcare and cost-saving priorities. Constantino praised Smullen for the spirited race, saying it sharpened his campaign and energized voters—while Smullen remains confident the district will stay red. The Conservative Party may replace Smullen—or leave the ballot line open.
