卡罗琳·辛克尔着眼于翻深蓝纽约选区
共和党纽约州第12国会选区候选人卡罗琳·辛克尔谈及她为拿下曼哈顿深蓝席位所面临的艰难战役。
在佐赫兰·曼达尼市长治下的纽约市，一名在全国最蓝选区之一参选的共和党国会候选人表示，保守主义原则能够拯救这座城市免于“被拖入泥潭”。
“曼达尼完全不代表我所在选区选民的立场，”竞选纽约州第12国会选区的共和党候选人卡罗琳·辛克尔在接受福克斯新闻数字频道采访时表示，“他简直是从无能走向了主动破坏，从针对肯·格里芬，到高盛选择 elsewhere 扩张，从社会主义、反犹太主义，再到犯罪问题和失控的生活成本，处处皆是如此。”
“除非你就是想把这座城市拖入泥潭，否则绝不可能这么治理城市，”她补充道。
辛克尔表示，她认为随着民众对犯罪和生活成本的担忧与日俱增，这个深蓝选区的选民正日益拒绝进步主义政治。
共和党人试图将曼达尼打造成民主党新形象
共和党纽约州第12国会选区候选人卡罗琳·辛克尔就不断上涨的生活成本批评市长佐赫兰·曼达尼。
“我们曼哈顿民众绝不能再选举另一名极左翼政客担任国会代表，尤其是当他们秉持的正是将纽约市拖入衰退螺旋的那种失败思维时，”她说。
作为该选区唯一的共和党挑战者，辛克尔正寻求接替即将退休的民主党纽约州众议员杰里·纳德勒。她是一名企业律师，拥有麻省理工学院和哈佛法学院学位。
“常识性”保守主义原则正是纽约这座大都市所亟需的，她说道。
“我的参选旨在扭转这一趋势，而本次竞选的所有民主党候选人都会继续加剧问题，而我则会成为解决方案的一部分，”她说，“这无关政治，这是常识，关乎生存，关乎回归基本面。”

2026年4月15日，纽约市市长佐赫兰·曼达尼在曼哈顿公园大道举行的服务业雇员国际工会32BJ SEIU集会上发表讲话。
辛克尔表示，这些原则不仅在保守派中引发共鸣，还得到了不同政治派别的选民的支持。
“我们倡导的常识性经济赋能理念，在本选区所有政治倾向的选民中都引发了共鸣——无论是共和党人、民主党人还是无党派人士，因为他们都明白我们正处于一场危急的紧急状态中，”她说。
她将曼达尼的税收政策称为“可悲的尝试”，试图让富人多缴税，并称这些政策会将民众和企业赶出纽约市。
“曼达尼那可悲的‘迫使人们缴纳‘公平份额’’的尝试，非但没有壮大城市的税基，反而最终变成了市民们为离开纽约市而支付的搬家费用公平份额，”她说，并补充称纽约市的局势已经“失控”。
“我们只需看看身边的现实，”她说，“失控的税收、失控的监管负担、失控的房租，以及失控的生活成本。亲犯罪的刑事政策、纵容反犹太主义。简直疯了。”
曼达尼自今年1月上任以来，其“向富人征税”的议程引发了强烈反弹，城堡投资集团首席执行官肯·格里芬已承诺将加大对佛罗里达州的投资。

城堡投资集团创始人兼首席执行官肯·格里芬将针对他的纽约市市长佐赫兰·曼达尼“向富人征税”广告描述为“令人毛骨悚然且怪异”的政治宣传。
辛克尔表示，这些政策惩罚的是成功的企业，而非鼓励它们发展。
“这是通过征税进行的掠夺。是时候让他抛弃这种非美国式、反成功的世界观了，开始为纽约的企业和家庭营造一个欢迎他们蓬勃发展的环境。”
不过，在这座拥有数百万纳税人的城市，辛克尔认为生活成本本不该飙升，“纽约市的生活成本没有理由如此高昂”。
除税收问题外，辛克尔表示，选民告诉她，公共安全是民主党人未加以解决的议题，纽约人理应能够乘坐公共交通工具、出门而不必担惊受怕。
“安全的街道、能够在傍晚步行去吃晚餐、乘坐地铁而不必担心生命安全，这无论你住在哪里都是理所应当的，”她说，“如果你因害怕出门而无法参与经济活动，就不可能拥有充满活力的经济，”她补充道。
尽管热爱这座城市，辛克尔称当地民众的士气已出现严重“滑坡”。
“纽约市是我选择定居并开创事业的地方，”她说，“我一直在纽约第12选区生活和工作，亲眼见证了这座城市的衰败和这里士气的低落。”

辛克尔表示，她的“促增长、支持企业、保护劳工政策”将改善纽约民众的生活，并让这座城市保持“全球企业之都”的地位。
“现在是时候恢复促增长、支持企业、保护劳工政策，以显著改善这里的生活质量，确保纽约市继续作为全球企业之都，”她说，“现在是时候撼动现有体制，在11月投票选举卡罗琳·辛克尔进入国会了。”
随着共和党人努力保住众议院微弱多数席位，作为本次竞选唯一的共和党候选人，辛克尔将自动晋级大选。
纽约州第12国会选区的选民将于6月23日前往投票站，在包括乔治·康韦、杰克·施洛斯伯格、迈卡·拉舍和亚历克斯·博雷斯在内的民主党候选人中做出选择。

NYC GOP hopeful says Mamdani ‘running city into the ground’ as taxes, crime fears fuel backlash

Caroline Shinkle eyes flipping deep-blue NYC district
Caroline Shinkle, a Republican candidate for New York’s 12 Congressional District, discusses her uphill battle to flip a deep-blue Manhattan seat.
In Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s New York City, one Republican congressional candidate running in one of the bluest districts in the country says conservative principles can save the city from being “run into the ground.”
“Mamdani does not represent where voters in my district are on the issues,” Caroline Shinkle, a Republican running in New York’s 12 Congressional District, told Fox News Digital. “He’s really gone from incompetence to active destruction, and we see this from the targeting of Ken Griffin to Goldman Sachs choosing to expand elsewhere, from socialism to antisemitism to crime to an out-of-control cost of living.”
“This is no way to run a city unless you’re trying to run it into the ground,” she added.
Shinkle said she believes voters in the deep-blue district are increasingly rejecting progressive politics as concerns over crime and the cost of living continue to grow.

“We, as the people of Manhattan, cannot afford to elect another far-left politician to represent us in Congress, not when they represent the same failed thinking that has sent New York City into its spiral of decline,” she said.
As the only Republican challenger, Shinkle is seeking to replace retiring Rep. Jerry Nadler, D-N.Y. She is a corporate lawyer and graduate of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Harvard Law School.
“Common sense” conservative principles are exactly what the Big Apple needs, she said.
“My candidacy is about reversing that trend line, and every Democrat running in this race will continue to add to the problem, whereas I will be part of the solution,” she said. “It is not political, it’s common sense, it is about survival and getting back to basics.”

Shinkle said those principles are resonating not only with conservatives, but with voters across the political spectrum.
“Our message of common sense economic empowerment is resonating with voters of all political affiliations throughout the district, Republicans, Democrats, and independents alike, because they understand that we are in a critical emergency situation,” she said.
She pointed to Mamdani’s tax policies as a “pathetic attempt” to make the wealthy pay more, arguing they would drive people and businesses out of New York City.
“Rather than building the tax base in the city, Mamdani’s pathetic attempt at forcing people to pay their ‘fair share’ is really translating to citizens paying their fair share of moving expenses to leave the city,” she said, adding that the situation has gotten “out of control” in New York City.
“We just have to look at the reality around us,” she said. “Out-of-control taxes, out-of-control regulatory burdens, out-of-control rent, to out-of-control cost of living. Pro-criminal crime policies, condoning anti-Semitism. It’s nuts.”
Mamdani’s “tax the rich” agenda has drawn heavy backlash since he took office in January, with Citadel CEO Ken Griffin pledging to boost investments in Florida instead.

Shinkle said the policies punish successful businesses rather than encouraging them.
“Taxation through appropriation. It’s time for him to drop-kick this un-American, anti-success worldview and start building a welcoming environment for New York businesses and families to thrive.”
However, in a city with millions of taxpayers, Shinkle is making the case that costs should not be soaring and there’s “no reason why the cost of living has to be sky-high here in New York City.”
In addition to taxes, Shinkle says constituents tell her that public safety is an issue not being addressed by Democrats and that New Yorkers deserve to ride public transportation and leave their houses without any fear.
“Safe streets and being able to walk to dinner in the evening and take the subway without fearing for your life is good practice wherever you live,” she said. “You cannot have a vibrant economy if you’re too scared to go out and participate in the economy,” she added.
Despite her love for the city, Shinkle said there has been a significant “deterioration of morale.”
“New York City is where I’ve chosen to live my life and build my career,” she said. “I’ve been living here and working here in the district in New York 12, and I’ve seen the degradation of the city and the deterioration of morale here.”

Shinkle said her “pro-growth, pro-business, pro-worker policies” will improve the lives of New Yorkers and keep the city a “global capital of enterprise.”
“It is time to restore pro-growth, pro-business, pro-worker policies to dramatically improve quality of life here and to ensure that New York City remains the global capital of enterprise,” she said. “It’s time to shock the system and vote Caroline Shinkle to Congress in November.”
As Republicans fight to hold their razor-thin House majority, Shinkle, who is the only Republican in the race, will automatically advance to the general election.
Voters in New York’s 12 Congressional District will head to the polls on June 23 to choose between Democratic candidates, including George Conway, Jack Schlossberg, Micah Lasher and Alex Bores.
