After losing primary race, George Grasso back on campaign trail in third-party bid for Queens DA
The Breezy Point Republican who nearly shocked the Queens Democratic establishment in 2022, threw his support behind a third-party candidate for Queens District Attorney.
Thomas Sullivan, a colonel in the U.S. Army Reserve, who came within 15 votes of upsetting incumbent Assemblywoman Stacey Pheffer Amato, eschewed the GOP candidate Michael Mossa of Howard Beach and endorsed retired Judge George Grasso in his bid to unseat Queens DA Melinda Katz in the Nov. 7 general election.
“Our public safety crisis has now become a public health crisis. Our current politicians are responsible for a man-made crime wave. To undo this and bring our city back from the brink, we need someone with unparalleled qualifications and experience,” Sullivan said. “Judge Grasso is the person Queens needs in this critical time. We must look past traditional party lines and elect a strong independent candidate with a proven track record who can get the job done.”
Sullivan has already filed to make another run for Pheffer Amato’s seat next year.
