DSCC, DCCC Team Up In NY

[hrmjustin]

Liz Benjamin

It’s a big year in New York for both state and national Democrats, with a handful of must-win contested state Senate and congressional races developing from Long Island to Buffalo.

A number of these races overlap. And in some cases, one congressional district with an active general election contest encompasses several state Senate districts where Democrats and Republicans are fighting for dominance.

On Long Island, for example, there are two high-profile House races – the fight for retiring Rep. Carolyn McCarthy’s seat, in which Nassau County DA Kathleen Rice is battling Republican Bruce Blakeman; and yet another effort by the Republicans (this time with state Sen. Lee Zeldin as the challenger) to unseat veteran Democratic Rep. Tim Bishop.

Within those two congressional districts are three contested state Senate races.
