George Santos Says He’ll Resign ‘If 142 People Ask’

Rep. George Santos (R-NY) told NBC News on Thursday that “if 142 people ask for me to resign, I will resign.”

“Santos made the comment while getting into an elevator on Capitol Hill and did not specify which 142 people he was referring to. It’s also possible he misspoke and was referring to the more than 142,000 votes he received when he defeated Democrat Robert Zimmerman in November’s race for New York’s 3rd Congressional District.”
