The seat was formerly held by Republican George Santos.
WOODBURY, New York — Democrats flipped the battleground Long Island seat last held by ousted Rep. George Santos, narrowing the already razor-thin Republican majority in the House.
Democrat Tom Suozzi won back his former seat in New York‘s 3rd Congressional District, defeating lesser-known Republican rival Mazi Melesa Pilip. Suozzi was poised Tuesday to return to Congress to represent battleground Long Island, edging out Pilip in the high-stakes race to replace George Santos.
The special election was a nail-biter heading into Tuesday, underscoring just how much the district has shifted to the right since Suozzi was last elected in 2020.
