Republican Michael Lawler is projected to beat Maloney, the chair of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee.


Rep. Sean Patrick Maloney (D) is projected to lose his bid to represent New York’s 17th Congressional District, marking a major upset for Democrats in an area where President Joe Biden stamped out former President Donald Trump in 2020.
It’s an especially painful loss for Democrats given Maloney’s job as chair of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, a task force dedicated to maintaining the party’s control of the House. He was New York’s first openly gay representative in Congress, where he’s served five terms.
