Disgraced ex-Long Island Rep. George Santos revealed he is fleeing the Big Apple if Democratic Socialist Zohran Mamdani is elected mayor — as he urged Andrew Cuomo and Curtis Sliwa to form a “coalition.”
“Sadly it seems that my family and I will be departing the city I’ve called home my entire life. NYC will become a very dangerous place to live in if we elect mayor Mamdani and that is a risk I am unwilling to take now that I want to start growing my family,” Santos wrote on X Tuesday.
The left-wing Democratic nominee holds a double-digit lead over independent candidate former Gov. Andrew Cuomo and Republican nominee Curtis Sliwa, according to a recent poll from Gotham Polling and the city AARP.
Santos, 37, didn’t officially endorse a candidate, instead joining a growing crowd of Republicans asking Sliwa to step aside and align with Cuomo for the “greater good” — two weeks before the polls in the general election open.
“I pray that God will illuminate the mind of Republican Curtis Sliwa and give him the strength, courage and humility to step aside and work with Cuomo to save NYC from Marxism/sharia disaster,” Santos wrote hours later.
“Andrew Cuomo, extend an offer of partnership to Curtis and form a coalition to save NYC,” he said. “It’s time to put our personal needs aside and unite to the greater good of the largest city in the country.”
Santos received some pushback online for encouraging Cuomo, but admitted he had been “out of the picture” during his recent imprisonment.
“Clearly I’ve been out of the picture and I am very aware that Cuomo is a horrible human being… my point above is based on the polling I’m reading,” he said. “Please don’t shoot me down and educate me instead on what I have missed.”
“Love you all and let’s have a solid and good conversation on this, the one thing I think we all agree is Mamdani is BAD for NYC,” Santos added.
On Tuesday, the defiant Sliwa rejected the calls for him to drop out of the race.
“Let’s be very clear: I am not dropping out, under no circumstances,” Sliwa said during a press conference on the Upper West Side, revealing he has turned down a hefty pay day to stay in the race.
“I’ve already been offered money to drop out, I said ‘no,’” he added.
The Guardian Angels founder — who has claimed he’s turned down $10 million in “bribes” for him to drop out — stubbornly stood his ground, while taking aim at the donor class for trying to meddle in the heated race.
“The billionaires have led the parade and they’ve been wrong every step of the way,” Sliwa told reporters.
Santos’ comments on the highly-watched NYC mayor’s race come days after President Trump commuted his 87-month prison sentence for wire fraud and aggravated identity theft.
On Friday, Trump announced his decision to commute the booted congressman’s jail time, citing “horrible” mistreatment by the Bureau of Prisons.
“George Santos was somewhat of a ‘rogue,’ but there are many rogues throughout our Country that aren’t forced to serve seven years in prison,” Trump said on Truth Social.

Santos served a total of 84 days of the 7-plus-year prison sentence at New Jersey’s FCI Fairton.
He was freed from the medium-security facility at around 11 p.m. and was whisked away in an unmarked SUV.
The lying pol returned to social media to thank Trump and say he was given a second chance at life.
Santos also began fulfilling requests on Cameo, sharing selfie-styled personal messages to paying customers on the platform.
Santos’ first “Cameo” was to wish former Trump White House staffer Megan Small a happy birthday, according to a video posted online.
“George Santos, fresh out of prison break,” the ex-con said, laughing, before he finished his birthday message.
Santos did not reveal where he would be moving to in the event of a Mamdani victory in November.
