决策台总部预测，纽约州议会议员米卡·拉舍尔（民主党）将赢得曼哈顿地区的空缺席位，接替长期任职的众议员杰里·纳德勒（民主党-纽约州）。
New York State Assembly member Micah Lasher (D) will win the open Manhattan-based seat to succeed longtime Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-N.Y.), Decision Desk HQ has projected.
拉舍尔在纽约第12选区击败了共和党人、律师卡罗琳·欣克尔，在这个民主党占绝对优势的地区，这场胜利并不令人意外。他在2024年当选州议会议员之前，已在纽约政坛工作多年。
Lasher defeated Republican Caroline Shinkle, an attorney, in New York's 12th District, a win that came as no surprise in a solidly blue area. He worked in New York politics for years before he was elected to the state Assembly in 2024.
在任职众议院超过30年的纳德勒宣布不再寻求连任后，该席位出现空缺。
The seat became open after Nadler, who has served in the House for more than 30 years, announced he would not run for reelection.
拉舍尔在拥挤的民主党初选中击败了同为州议会议员的亚历克斯·博雷斯，以及两位知名人物——杰克·施洛斯伯格和乔治·康威。在初选中支持拉舍尔的人包括纳德勒本人。拉舍尔此前曾担任这位众议员的助手。
Lasher prevailed in a crowded Democratic primary against fellow state Assembly member Alex Bores and two high-profile figures — Jack Schlossberg and George Conway. Among Lasher's supporters in the primary included Nadler himself. Lasher previously served as an aide to the congressman.
