The New York State Conservative Party successfully concluded its 2026 Nominating Convention in Rockland County, where Conservative leaders from across New York gathered with strong enthusiasm to officially nominate, designate, and authorize the Party’s statewide slate of candidates.
“The excitement and unity at this convention proves Conservatives are ready to fight back against Governor Hochul’s failed leadership and the disastrous far-left agenda coming out of Albany,” said Conservative Party State Chairman Gerard Kassar. “New Yorkers are tired of watching their friends and family flee this state because it has become too expensive, and with communism at our doorstep in New York City, the threat is real. This is our chance, and our year, to save the future for our children and grandchildren. New Yorkers are demanding leadership that will restore public safety, protect taxpayers, bring common sense back to state government, and most of all, make New York more affordable.”
The Conservative Party’s 2026 statewide slate includes:
Bruce Blakeman for Governor
Todd Hood for Lieutenant Governor
Saritha Komatireddy for Attorney General
Joseph Hernandez for Comptroller
The Conservative Party is united, energized, and ready to win in 2026. Voters will once again find our candidates on Row C.
