House Republican Conference Chair Elise Stefanik is hosting a virtual rally tonight with former President Donald Trump to support New York's battleground seats. Stefanik and her team are reaching out to nearly 1 million Trump supporters to encourage early voting during the tele-rally.
Participating members and candidates in the call include Rep. Nick LaLota (1st District), Mike LiPetri (candidate for 3rd District), Rep. Anthony D’Esposito (4th District), Rep. Mike Lawler (17th District), Alison Esposito (candidate for 18th District), Rep. Marc Molinaro (19th District), Rep. Elise Stefanik (21st District), and Rep. Brandon Williams (22nd District).
The battleground for the House of Representatives in New York, particularly in the suburbs of central New York, the Hudson Valley, and Long Island, is where the balance of power is likely to be determined. These competitive races are revealing red cracks in the state's reputation as a blue fortress.
