What to know about New York’s primary
Several of New York’s highest-profile statewide primaries were uncontested, including the races for governor. Gov. Kathy Hochul ran unopposed in the Democratic primary, while Republican Bruce Blakeman also ran unopposed.
The most closely watched races were in New York’s U.S. House primaries, where several Democratic contests tested the strength of progressive candidates against more establishment-backed Democrats. AP described the House races as the center of attention in a primary where relatively few top statewide officeholders appeared on the ballot.
In New York City, several projected winners included candidates backed by Mayor Zohran Mamdani, whose political influence has become a major storyline in the state’s Democratic primaries. AP reported that Mamdani-backed candidates ousted two sitting members of Congress and won multiple Democratic House primaries.
Election results will continue to update as more votes are counted.
