NEW YORK CITY, New York — Republican mayoral candidate Nicole Malliotakis launched a blistering attack on left-wing Mayor Bill de Blasio Friday, accusing him of placing a “for sale” sign at the gates of City Hall, and calling for an investigation of allegations of pay-to-play.
“There’s literally a “For Sale” sign at the gates and we need to change this culture,” Malliotakis said, according to the New York Post.
Malliotakis’s remarks came after testimony from wealthy donor Jona Rechnitz, who claimed he bought access to de Blasio. Testifying at a bribery trial of the former head of the corrections union, Rechnitz said that he donated more than $100,000 to the mayor’s political causes and that it gave him significant access.
