She's The Chair Of The Manhattan Republican Party
Catsimatidis said that she looked up "what it meant to be a Republican" back when her father first explored running on the party's mayoral ticket in 2009. Since her family has had a lifelong relationship with the Clintons, she had always assumed her father was a democrat. But, she told New York Magazine, she "saw that being a Republican stood for freedom and opportunity for all, and was like, Of course I’m a Republican!” She went on to lead the NYU College Republicans before becoming chair of the Manhattan GOP in 2017. She maintains that the party's New York candidates are "very socially liberal." Here she is holding a rainbow flag at a Republican Pride party.
