New NY congressional districts would give Dems a boost
A new congressional map drawn by New York Democrats would make key changes on Long Island and in central New York that could aid the party in its efforts to win control of the U.S. House of Representatives later this year.
But Democratic Rep.-elect Tom Suozzi’s Queens and Nassau County district would extend eastward, dipping into Suffolk County to pick up Democratic turf while ceding some redder areas of Nassau to Republican Rep. Andrew Garbarino’s district. Republicans, meanwhile, are expected to sue. They argue Democrats are violating an anti-gerrymandering provision in the state constitution, which prohibits political maps from being drawn to benefit a particular party or candidate.
The bill wouldn’t make major changes to the competitive balance — at least between Democrats and Republicans — in New York City’s existing congressional districts, which Democrats successfully sued to replace last year on procedural grounds.
