Early voting starts this Saturday in the 2024 election in New York, and while the presidential race between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump dominates the discussion, Manhattanites also have many down-ballot races to consider.
New York’s junior senator, Kirsten Gillibrand, is up for re-election statewide, as are all seats in the state Senate and Assembly. The one common factor for the races in Manhattan is that all of the incumbents, who happen to be Democrats, are expected to easily win their races in a solidly blue borough that will likely see an overwhelming Democratic vote in the presidential race.
