共和党挑战者指责民主党人在飙升的电费争端中是“伪君子”

获得特朗普背书的共和党纽约州参议员彼得·奥伯拉克于周二晚间赢得共和党初选,获得共和党提名,将挑战现任民主党纽约州众议员乔希·赖利。

纽约州第19国会选区涵盖曼哈顿以北区域,是共和党希望翻转的众多竞争席位之一——共和党正力求维持其在众议院的微弱多数优势。

尽管该选区历来倾向民主党,但共和党上次在该选区获胜还是在2022年。

奥伯拉克拥有食品行业从业背景,自2021年起担任纽约州参议员。在竞选活动中,他将自己定位为拥有多元化履历的务实公职人员。

“人们常说有两样东西不该看其制作过程:法律和香肠。好吧,这两样我都了解。服务公众一直是我的追求。作为一名志愿消防员和急诊医疗技术员,同时也曾担任镇监督员和县议员,”奥伯拉克在一段竞选视频中说道。

奥伯拉克于今年早些时候获得了前总统唐纳德·特朗普的背书。

“作为你们的下一任国会议员,他将不知疲倦地奋斗,以提振经济、削减税收和监管、释放美国能源主导地位、保障我们边境安全、制止移民犯罪、确保法律与秩序、强化我们英勇的军队和退伍军人群体、推进选举诚信,并保护始终面临围攻的第二修正案,”特朗普写道。

奥伯拉克在州参议院的工作大多聚焦于农村农业、农场和纳税人的能源成本。此前,奥伯拉克曾提出法案,禁止对企业征收追溯性账单,并禁止使用纳税人资金弥补企业亏损。他还率先呼吁调查不断上涨的公用事业价格。

“结果才是关键。这就是为什么我作为《公用事业纳税人权利法案》的一部分提出了多项法案。这项立法要求公用事业公司保持透明并承担责任,将权力交还给人民——这才是权力应属之处,”奥伯拉克在最近的Facebook帖子中写道。

根据联邦选举委员会的记录,他筹集了近100万美元资金。

赢得初选后,奥伯拉克即将进入大选阶段,他将于11月3日与赖利展开对决。

赖利是首次当选的众议员,2024年他以51.1%比48.8%的微弱优势击败共和党纽约州众议员马库斯·莫利纳罗,成功当选。

GOP voters pick Trump-backed nominee in battle to flip crucial House seat

The state senator will face first-term Rep. Josh Riley, who won his seat by just over two points in 2024

GOP challenger calls Democrat a ‘hypocrite’ in spat over soaring electric bills

State Sen. Peter Oberacker, R-N.Y., spoke with Fox News Digital about his run for Congress and incumbent Rep. Josh Riley’s ties to the utility industry.

NEW You can now listen to Fox News articles!

Peter Oberacker, a Trump-backed Republican New York state senator, won a GOP primary on Tuesday evening, securing the GOP nomination to challenge incumbent Rep. Josh Riley, D-N.Y.

New York’s 19th Congressional District, which encompasses an area north of Manhattan, is one of many competitive seats Republicans hope to flip as they look to maintain control of the U.S. House of Representatives, where they hold a narrow majority.

Despite a historically Democratic bent, Republicans last won the district in 2022.

Oberacker, who has a background in food business, has served as a New York state senator since 2021. In his campaign, he has pitched himself as a pragmatic public servant with a diverse resume.

“They say there are two things you should never see being made: laws and sausage. Well, I know both. Service has always called me. As a volunteer firefighter and EMT and as a town supervisor and county legislator,” Oberacker said in a campaign video.

Oberacker received President Donald Trump’s endorsement earlier this year.

“As your next Congressman, he will fight tirelessly to Grow the Economy, Cut Taxes and Regulations, Unleash American Energy DOMINANCE, Keep our Border SECURE, Stop Migrant Crime, Ensure LAW AND ORDER, Strengthen our Brave Military/Veterans, Advance Election Integrity and Protect our always-under-siege Second Amendment,” Trump wrote.

Most of Oberacker’s work in the state Senate has focused on rural agriculture, farms and ratepayer energy costs. In the past, Oberacker has introduced bills that looked to ban retroactive bills for businesses and a ban on using taxpayer funds to cover corporate losses. He has also spearheaded calls to investigate climbing utility prices.

“Results matter. That’s why I have introduced several bills as a part of my utility ratepayer bill of rights. This legislation requires transparency and accountability from the utilities and gives power back to people — where it belongs,” Oberacker wrote in a recent post to Facebook.

He has raised just shy of a million dollars, according to Federal Election Commission records.

Having cleared the primary, Oberacker now heads to the general election, where he will face off against Riley on Nov. 3.

Riley, a first-term representative, won his seat in a narrow 51.1% to 48.8% victory over Rep. Marcus Molinaro, R-N.Y., in 2024.
