In a wide-ranging interview with CNN’s Manu Raju on Friday, Rep. George Santos, a New York Republican, argued that his constituents didn’t vote for him based on his biography and said he would “absolutely” run in 2024 if he is expelled – something that could happen as soon as this month if the House Ethics committee recommends the chamber take such a dramatic step.
Referring to past misrepresentations about his background, Santos said, “Nobody elected me because I played volleyball or not. Nobody elected me because I graduated college or not. People elected me because I said I’d come here to fight the swamp, I’d come here to lower inflation, create more jobs, make life more affordable, and the commitment to America,” he said.
Read the full article. There’s no law or rule against running again after expulsion. In 2002, Rep. James Traficant ran from prison after being expelled, getting 15% of the vote.
“Absolutely,” George Santos tells me he will run for his seat if the House expels him.
Says voters didn’t care about his biography, which he fabricated.
