Results from the midterm elections are showing big wins for Democrats in city and statewide races Wednesday morning.
Multiple contests were called yesterday — including those of U.S. Sen. Chuck Schumer, U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, New York State Attorney General Letitia James, Bronx 80th District Assemblymember John Zaccaro Jr., and 83rd Assemblymember Carl Heastie, to name just a few.
One of the races the Associated Press waited to call until late was the New York gubernatorial bid — with incumbent Kathy Hochul only just ahead of challenger Lee Zeldin close to 11 p.m., according to preliminary data from the New York State Board of Elections.
