Suozzi, Pilip race reaches stormy climax
An unusual special election in New York City’s suburbs could be a bellwether in the fight for control of Congress. The Tuesday election pits Democrat Tom Suozzi, a former congressman, against Republican Mazi Pilip, a county lawmaker, in a race for a district in Queens and Long Island that became vacant after George Santos was expelled from Congress late last year.
NEW YORK - The Associated Press has reported that Democrat Tom Suozzi has won the special election in New York’s third congressional district to decide who will complete the remaining 11 months of George Santos’ unfinished term. Scroll down for real-time election results.
Republican Mazi Pilip and Democrat Tom Suozzi were on the ballot in the Long Island/Queens special election, vying to fill former Rep. George Santos' seat.
