Republican Garbarino wins election to replace retiring Rep. Pete King
Republican Andrew Garbarino is projected to have defeated Democrat Jackie Gordon to fill the seat of retiring Rep. Pete King (R-N.Y.).
The Associated Press called the race at 11:41 a.m. EST, more than a month after Election Day.
Garbarino’s win means Republicans will maintain control of New York’s 2nd Congressional District, which King has served since 1993.
The longtime congressman announced last year he would not seek reelection.
