Democrats Win New York Senate Race in Trump-Friendly District
Democrat Sam Sutton secured victory in New York’s State Senate District 22 special election, defeating Republican Nachman Caller by a significant margin. This win maintains Democratic control of the seat despite the district’s conservative leanings and the resignation of former Senator Simcha Felder, a conservative Democrat who often caucused with Republicans. Sutton, a community leader with strong ties to the Sephardic community, campaigned on public safety, education funding, and clean energy. His win is attributed to his community engagement and broad appeal within the diverse district.
