Antonio Delgado

New York Governor Kathy Hochul won Tuesday’s Democratic primary, her first contest in seeking a full term as governor. She’ll face Long Island Congressman Lee Zeldin in the November election.

New York’s registered Democrats and Republicans are voting in primaries Tuesday that will determine the party’s choice for governor. While Governor Kathy Hochul is comfortably ahead of her two opponents, the results of the four-way Republican primary for governor are less clear.

In this year’s Democratic primary for the position, three candidates are running: Antonio Delgado, Ana Maria Archila and Diana Reyna. Each is associated with a candidate who is running for governor, but in the primary, they are elected separately.

New York now officially has a new lieutenant governor, Antonio Delgado, who immediately focused on gun violence in the wake of the Texas school shooting.

Connecticut has begun making money from nips.

New York lawmakers are hoping to push through three bills in the State Legislature that take aim at restrictive abortion laws in other states.

The governor’s choice of a new second in command comes three weeks after former lieutenant governor Brian Benjamin was indicted on federal corruption charges and resigned from office.
