Suburban special election could sway House majority, early turnout low

Midterm election voting in Brooklyn, New York

In the highly anticipated special election to fill the vacant seat of expelled Congressman George Santos, the candidates vying for the 3rd Congressional District in the suburbs outside New York City have shifted their focus to the pressing issue of immigration.

Offering rides to the polls, campaign workers are working tirelessly to overcome the potential obstacles posed by the weather.
