“This needs to Stop” said spokeswoman Katie Vincentz after Republican Congressman Lee Zeldin was attacked during a campaign rally in New York.  According to Politico, 

“Republican Rep. Lee Zeldin was attacked by a man with a knife during an upstate campaign stop for Governor Thursday evening.

Zeldin, who is challenging Democratic Gov. Kathy Hochul in November, was speaking at a VFW in Fairport near Rochester to kick off a four-day “Unite to Fire Hochul” Bus Tour when a man climbed on stage and attempted to stab him, according to a statement by the Zeldin campaign. He was not injured.”
