Elise Stefanik Net Worth & Career

Following graduation, she started working at the administration for U. S. 43rd President, George W. Bush. There, she worked as a staff for the Domestic Policy Council. Then, she served for Joshua Bolten, who was Bush’s 2nd deputy chief of staff. Her early experience also includes as a director of the presidential exploratory committee of Tim Pawlenty.

During the 2012 Presidential election, she looked after the debate preparation for the Wisconsin congressman, Paul Ryan. However, she returned back to New York, after Romney and Ryan faced a defeat in the 2012 presidential election. Stefanik named herself as one of the candidates in the U. S. House of Representatives for the 2014 election.

She stood in the election for New York’s 21st congressional district. Stefanik became the youngest woman for getting elected to Congress, after defeating the strong opponents from Democratic Party, Aaron Woolf, and Green Party nominee, Matt Funiciello. In 2016, she competed for the re-election and defeated strong candidates, Mike Derrick and Matt Funiciello in the general election. Elise again stood for the re-election in 2017, where she received a 56.1 % vote.

Likewise, she was called for a rematch by Tedra Cobb in the general election, where she defeated him getting a 58.83% vote. Stefanik has been a strong supporter of former President, Donald Trump. After Trump faced a defeat in the 2020 Presidential election, Trump was not accepting the defeat, as he was making false claims of fraud. Trump even tried to overturn election results.

Stefanik also supported Trump’s allegations claiming that Joe Biden received over 140,000 votes from the underage and deceased people. She further alleged that Biden has earned votes from other unauthorized voters from Fulton County, Georgia.

Elise is currently making her way near as a new Republican Conference chairwoman. She would be succeeding Liz Cheney, who has been against Trump’s Big Lie on his false allegation on the 2020 Presidential election. The GOP has clearly made a decision to reject Liz Cheney and elevate Stefanik. It makes clear that Trump is still heading the Democratic Party.
