I have read Eric Lawrence’s letter(s) the past several weeks excoriating Supervisor DeSena’s position regarding George Santos.

It is apparent to me that Mr. Lawrence may have the ability to put ”pen to paper” but cannot read.

The following is Supervisor DeSena’s comments vis a vis Santos:

Town of North Hempstead Jennifer DeSena, who endorsed Santos ahead of the November election, condemned him for lying about his personal and professional background and said he will not be welcome at any town event she is present at. Other members of the town board, she said, agree with her.

“George Santos has admitted he lied and fabricated his education and his employment. He has failed to answer additional questions about his finances,” DeSena said in a statement. “My disappointment is extreme and personal as I was deceived when asked to endorse him. I join others who have called for federal and state investigations.”

DeSena expressed her disappointment in Santos for misleading constituents about his genealogy and relationships with individuals who were killed at the Pulse Nightclub massacre.

“Having failed to answer questions that the public has a right to know, Mr. Santos is not trustworthy and if he takes office will not have my support. He is not welcome at any program or event in the Town of North Hempstead that I am a part of. I’ve spoken with members of the minority party on the Town Board and our Town Clerk and they share my views.”

The supervisor also said she will never view Santos as her congressional representative.

Her position and a correct one could not be clearer.
