The only reason he hasn't dropped out already is because he doesn't want Santos to get more than 99% of the vote. Otherwise, he's resigned to his fate

I thought he'd be enjoying his retirement after becoming the longest serving and most beloved congressman in US history.  But given that he voluntarily stepped down at the height of his popularity in order to magnanimously allow his predecessor Tom Suozzi to represent the district once again for a little while, I suppose it makes sense to give the citizens of another district the opportunity to be graced with his service instead.

Watch Santos actualy win... but then promptly get impeached again and have the seat go to the Dems in the ensuing special election.

I mean, while that'd be hilarious I really struggle to imagine people voting for George Santos (I-NY).

Not a chance, Santos's base is in NY-04 for decades.

It never made sense for him to run in another seat, even in a primary.

I absolutely could see him getting like ~10% of the Republican vote and causing them to lose the election.

Likely R -> Tossup

Is George Santos upset that the bill to repeal the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund passed the House? That's the only thing of note to have happened in the chamber today.

"Scandal-plagued former Rep. George Santos dropped his independent bid on Tuesday for an eastern Long Island House seat.

Santos, who faces multiple felony charges, wrote on X that he did not want to potentially divide the Republican vote for first-term GOP Rep. Nick LaLota and help the eventual Democratic nominee in the 1st congressional district.

“Although Nick and I don’t have the same voting record and I remain critical of his abysmal record, I don’t want to split the ticket and be responsible for handing the house to Dems,” Santos wrote in the post.

LaLota responded: “Chat GPT translation: He’s taking a plea deal.”"
