Bruce Blakeman (R) outraises challenger Seth Koslow (D) in Nassau county executive campaign

Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman outraised his opponent, Nassau County Legislator Seth Koslow (D–Merrick), over the first six months of the year by nearly fourfold, bringing in almost $2 million to his campaign compared to Koslow’s $550,000.

Blakeman, a Republican who was elected to the county seat in 2021, has raised $1.96 million in campaign contributions since the beginning of the year, bringing his total campaign fundraising to about $3.3 million, according to state campaign filings. His campaign raised nearly $1.4 million in 2024.

Koslow, the county’s Democratic District 5 legislator elected in 2023, has raised more than $550,000 over the first six months of the year, for a total of $654,000 raised overall.

“I’m proud to have earned overwhelming support from hardworking taxpayers, law enforcement, trade unions, and local employers who stand behind my record of holding the line on taxes and keeping Nassau the safest county in America,” Blakeman said in a statement.“ In contrast, Seth Koslow’s failing campaign is aided by criminal attorneys and radical NYC politicians who want to defund the police and raise taxes.”
