In a closely watched race in upstate New York, Democratic Congressman Anthony Brindisi faces a tough re-election bid against Republican challenger Claudia Tenney. Brindisi, a centrist Democrat, won his seat in 2018 by a slim margin. But this year, he’s facing a resurgent Republican Party, fueled by President Trump’s populist appeal. Tenney, a former assemblywoman, has made immigration and law and order key issues in her campaign. Brindisi, meanwhile, has focused on his record of bipartisanship and delivering results for his district.
