This R&D provides resources on former New York Governor George Pataki’s presidential candidacy. Pataki unexpectedly entered the Republican presidential primaries last week. He served as the Governor of New York from 1995 to 2006 and has a reputation as a moderate Republican. Some of Pataki’s political positions include a support for tax cuts and the death penalty, but Pataki’s position in favor of gay marriage and abortion will put him at odds with the Republican Party’s socially conservative base.
