Local elections spotlight

U.S. Rep. Mike Lawler, a first-term Republican, is locked in a competitive reelection bid against Democratic former U.S. Rep. Mondaire Jones for his congressional seat in New York’s Hudson Valley.

Lawler represents New York's newly drawn 17th congressional district, a suburban area north of the city that encompasses parts of Dutchess, Putnam, Rockland and Westchester counties.

Home to quaint artistic enclaves and the Clintons, Democrats outnumber Republicans by 75,000 in the district, yet the race is widely considered a toss-up.
