GOP shows strength in House races in New York City suburbs
Associated PressALBANY, N.Y. — Republican Mike Lawler defeated Rep. Sean Patrick Maloney in New York City’s northern suburbs, and the GOP swept all four House seats on Long Island as the party closed in on its largest share of the state’s congressional delegation in two decades. D’Esposito, a retired New York Police Department detective and member of the Hempstead town council, succeeds U.S. Rep. Kathleen Rice, a Democrat who did not run for reelection. Molinaro, the Dutchess County executive who was the Republican candidate for governor of New York in 2018, defeated Democrat Josh Riley, an attorney hailing from the district’s western end. The race appeared exceedingly close early Wednesday, but Schmitt nonetheless conceded, saying he hoped Ryan “will do great things for our Hudson Valley families.” Democrats held on to many of New York’s top offices in Tuesday’s election, winning the governor’s race, the race for U.S. Senate and state attorney general.
