Democrats are again angling for Rep. Mike Lawler's House seat. Can he hold on in liberal New York?
Democrats are betting suburban anxiety, affordability concerns and opposition to Zohran Mamdani will help them flip a seat with far more Democrats than Republicans.
- U.S. Rep. Mike Lawler faces a challenging reelection in New York's Hudson Valley battleground district, aiming to retain his seat against Democratic challenger Cait Conley.
- Seeking to maintain a moderate voice, Lawler told The Associated Press he is willing to support President Donald Trump while pushing back when he disagrees, arguing that refusing to work with the president achieves nothing.
- Distancing herself from urban progressive positions, Democrat Cait Conley, a former National Security Council official, argues voters are primarily concerned with the economy and "the corruption and greed" coming from the Trump administration.
- Lawler recently faced controversy over a social media post featuring a past costume, while 70-year-old Frank Zambrano, a Rockland County resident, expressed frustration seeking a middle-ground representative between the two parties.
- With the district containing more registered Democrats than Republicans, Lawler remains one of the nation's most vulnerable incumbents. "Everybody who thinks they know what's going to happen in November I think is fooling themselves," he said.
