Attorney Daniel Goldman came to Good Day New York to talk about the race with Rosanna Scotto and Bianca Peters.
NEW YORK - Attorney Dan Goldman defeated several candidates for the Democratic nomination in a newly drawn U.S. House district that covers parts of Lower Manhattan and Brooklyn, according to The Associated Press.
Goldman is a former federal prosecutor who served as an impeachment lawyer in the Democrats' inquiry against then-President Donald Trump.
Goldman built his reputation as a federal prosecutor working on organized crime and securities fraud cases in the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York. He garnered a degree of national recognition as the lead counsel for House Democrats in Trump's first impeachment hearing.
He defeated a crowded field of Democrats that included Assembly Member Yuh-Line Niou and Rep. Mondaire Jones.

Jones is a first-term progressive who was one of the first openly gay Black members of Congress. The district Jones currently represents covers parts of Westchester County and all of Rockland County.
