NEWS - Rep. Chris Jacobs announces he will not run for re-election
BUFFALO, N.Y. (WIVB) — Republican Congressman Chris Jacobs, who represents New York’s 27th district and announced his candidacy for New York’s 23rd district in May 2022, announced Friday he will no longer be running for the new district.
Jacobs, an Orchard Park native, recently spoke out against the sale of AR-15s following the white supremacist mass shooting at the Jefferson Avenue Tops Markets location in Buffalo and a mass shooting at an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas that killed 19 children and two teachers.
NYS Conservative Chairman Gerard Kassar called Jacobs’ position on guns “unsatisfactory” and Erie County Conservative Chairman Ralph Lorigo called it “very disappointing,” adding, “We can’t support him in this district.”
Tompkins County legislator Mike Sigler announced Tuesday he would be challenging Jacobs for NY-23 in the primary, however, on News 4 at 4 Friday, he said he would be stepping aside to put his support behind NYS Republican Chairman Nick Langworthy. The Buffalo News reported earlier this week that Langworthy may consider a run, though he has not formally announced his candidacy.
News 4 also confirmed Ellicott Development Co. chair and former candidate for governor Carl Paladino plans to run, now that Jacobs is out of the race.
