Rep. Hakeem Jeffries elected to succeed Pelosi, will become 1st Black party leader in Congress

Rep. Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., was unanimously elected on Wednesday as the next leader of the House Democratic Caucus. The 52-year-old Brooklyn native, who succeeds 82-year-old House Speaker Nancy Pelosi , will be the first Black and first nonwhite party leader in Congress. In 2018 he defeated Rep. Barbara Lee, D-Calif., to become chair of the House Democratic Caucus, making him the fifth-ranking member of the Democratic leadership in the chamber.

New York emerges as exception to strong election for Dems

Republicans flipped four congressional seats, including one held by Rep. Sean Patrick Maloney, who ran the House Democrats' campaign arm. It was the closest governor's race in the state since 1994 when incumbent Democrat Mario Cuomo lost to Republican George Pataki. But the New York challenges were especially disappointing because they happened in a state where Democrats have twice as many registered voters as Republicans. “It’s one thing for the Florida Democratic party to be an absolute neutered disgrace. It’s another thing to have deep problems in the Democratic Party in a state like New York,” Democratic strategist Jon Reinish said.

Democratic campaign chief Maloney at risk of losing House seat

In a sign of the potential Republican gains in next month’s midterm elections, House Democratic campaign chief Rep. Sean Patrick Maloney is in danger of losing his upstate New York seat. The irony is that Maloney actually switched districts earlier this year to run in an easier seat for a Democratic candidate to win. The new 17th district encompasses part of the Hudson Valley and it includes Maloney’s home. President Biden won the new 17th district by 10 points in 2020, just a slightly larger margin than Biden’s advantage in the new 18th district. Maloney was challenged in the 17th district primary by progressive state Sen. Alessandra Biaggi, who attacked Maloney for putting his own interests ahead of the party’s.
