U.S. Representative Nadler wins tight incumbent-vs-incumbent primary in New York
3:39 am Wednesday, August 24th, 2022
(Reuters) – U.S. Representative Jerrold Nadler, a congressman of some 30 years, beat fellow longtime Democratic Representative Carolyn Maloney in a rare incumbent-vs-incumbent primary in New York, NBC News projected on Tuesday.
The contest between two leading U.S. House of Representatives Democrats resulted from a court-mandated redrawing of districts in New York state.
Nadler is expected to hold the seat against a Republican opponent in the Nov. 8 general election.
