New York

This is a deep BLUE STATE that Biden won in 2020, Clinton won in 2016 and Harris won in 2024. It does not have a Senate election in 2026. New York has a large number of House Districts, and these tend to be heavily Democratic in the urban areas in and around New York City and heavily Republican in the northern and western parts of the state – although there are exceptions!

The most hotly contested PURPLE District is NY-17, which Democrats must win to retake control of the House. Other Districts categorized as purple for this election include NY-1, NY-3, NY-4, NY-6, NY-14, NY-18, NY-19, NY-22 and NY-25.

You may be the one person who can convince that person to vote, and to vote for our survival, at this election.
