Things just got “Spicey” in the race for a Staten Island congressional seat.

Sean Spicer — who tussled with reporters over crowd sizes at the Trump inaugural and is now “Dancing with The Stars” — is trying to help Assemblywoman Nicole Malliotakis reclaim a congressional seat covering Staten Island and southern Brooklyn for the Republican Pary.

Spicer, President Trump’s first press secretary, is providing strategic advice and doing direct mail for Republican Assemblywoman Nicole Malliotakis’ congressional campaign.

And Spicer, who went to war with the media over the number of attendees at Trump’s inaugural, is still big on crowd size.

“Nicole really packed them in,” said Spicer, who spoke at Malliotakis’ fund-raiser on Staten Island Monday night.

How many people attended? The Post asked Spicer.

“That’s my claim to fame,” Spicer quipped, refusing to get pinned down on numbers.

The Malliotakis campaign said 160 supporters showed up.

“I was going to say 150,” Spicer responded when told what the campaign said.

Spicer was a target of withering comedic fire during his brief tenure as Trump’s mouthpiece, particularly on Saturday Night Live where comic actress Melissa McCarthy played him as “Spicey.”

But Spicer, also the former spokesman of the Republican National Committee, has a sense of humor. His GOP bio listed among his “distinctions” as “serving as an Easter Bunny at the White House Easter Egg Roll, being lampooned by the Onion, cited as a ‘Moment of Zen’ on ‘The Daily Show,’ and being mocked by David Letterman.”

“I like to have some fun,” he said, when asked about appearing on Dancing with the Stars.

He’s deadly serious about helping Malliotakis win.

“We need 18 seats to win back the majority. You don’t take it back without winning NY 11 (congressional district),” Spicer said.

“Nicole is electable. She adds diversity to the party. She’s got a solid record,” he added.

Malliotakis is looking to take on first-term Democratic Rep. Max Rose and is consolidating GOP support as ex-congressman Michael Grimm, who vacated the seat after pleading guilty to tax evasion, weighs another comeback.

The assemblywoman in the spring spoke with Trump by phone about her candidacy.

While the Malliotakis campaign has retained Spicer’s firm, the assemblywoman has a plan to help Spicer spice up his dancing skills.

“I offered my mom to give Sean salsa lessons,” said Malliotakis.

Her mother, Vera, is a Cuban émigré.

Spicer met Vera Malliotakis at the fund-raiser.

Asked about getting a lesson, Spicer said, “If I had stayed a little longer, who knows?”
