Winner Declared in 17th Congressional District, GOP Challenger Leads Comfortably in Assembly Race

November 5, 2020 by helpdesk1

Democrat Mondaire Jones, a 33 year-old Harvard-educated lawyer, has been declared the victor in the race for the 17th congressional district against Republican Maureen McArdle Schulman. Born and raised in Rockland, a graduate of East Ramapo’s Spring Valley High School, Jones said in a video posted on Twitter that he was proud to represent the same people he grew up with…

Jones succeeds Congresswoman Nita Lowey, who was the first woman to ever chair the House Appropriations Committee. Jones is one of the two first openly gay, black men to serve in Congress.

In the race for state Assembly, GOP challenger Mike Lawler held a big lead over seven-term Assemblywoman Democrat Ellen Jaffee. Lawler said he was proud of the campaign that he ran…

Lawler thanked Jaffee for her years of service to Rockland. Lawler leads by about 8,000 votes with more than 12,000 absentee ballots still to be counted. Jaffee says she’s waiting to see how the absentee ballot count goes before she concedes.
