"Look, I'm perfectly fine with Mamdani winning, Hannity said. You wanna know why? Because it's not gonna impact my life. I left New York. You know why I left New York? High taxes, quality of life, crime. I had a hard time going to a restaurant in New York City because people would stare at me and hated me and they had daggers in their eyes. You know what? I'm loved down here in Florida."
"But we are now beginning our first broadcast of my new home, and that is in the free state of Florida, he said at the time. I am out. I am done. I'm finished. New York, New York, goodbye. Florida, Florida. If you can make it here, you can make it anywhere. But it's great to be here."
"No, I like Brian Cashman, actually, Hannity responded. I think he's a pretty good guy."
Sean Hannity left New York and relocated to Florida in January 2024, citing high taxes, declining quality of life, and crime as key reasons. He said he often felt unwelcome in New York, describing tense restaurant experiences where people stared and expressed hostility, and contrasted that with feeling loved in Florida. Hannity said a New York mayoral outcome would not affect his life now that he has moved. He sparred with former Mayor Bill de Blasio on his show over Democratic nominee Zohran Mamdani and defended Yankees GM Brian Cashman after a de Blasio quip. Hannity called Florida a 'free state' and began broadcasting from there.
