Friends,
Many of you have reached out with questions about the new New York Congressional districts, so I am writing today to explain the process of redistricting, what the new NY-3 looks like, and why this race is important.
Earlier this month, the New York state legislature voted on new Congressional maps after the bipartisan commission failed to come to an agreement to pass maps. This process, called redistricting, is done every 10 years in accordance with new data from the U.S. Census. This is what NY-3 now looks like:
As you can see, this new district encompasses much of Long Island, parts of Westchester including my hometown of Pelham, and some of the Bronx.
Now, here’s why this is a race to watch: the current representative from NY-3 is not running for this seat in 2022, and the district has a history of conservative representation
All my best,
Alessandra
EDITOR'S NOTE:
We left out the solicitation part, and invite current State Senator Biaggi to come on our live Television show PARROT TV Talking Politics Friday Noon to 1 PM, to explain why she has chosen to run for Congress rather than re-election.
