Suozzi wins re-election to New York’s 3rd Congressional District

U.S. Rep. Tom Suozzi was re-elected to New York’s 3rd Congressional District Tuesday night and defeated Republican challenger Mike LiPetri by 2.5%, overcoming a red wave led by Donald Trump across the country, who won Nassau County by nearly 5 percentage points.

“I’m a Democrat – a true blue, dyed in the wool Democrat,” Suozzi said. “And I will work with anybody to solace problems because I’m a true blue, dyed in the wool American,”
