Democrat Claire Valdez is projected to win New York's 7th Congressional District, according to Decision Desk HQ, as reported by The Hill. She is a New York Assembly member.

Valdez beat Republican Melvin Rivera, The Hill reports. It says she polled well ahead of him after winning the Democratic primary in June. She will succeed Rep. Nydia Velázquez (D), who is retiring.

Both outlets describe Valdez as backed by Mamdani. Fox News calls her a socialist and says she had support from the DSA. It says her win deepens a rift among New York Democrats, and that Hakeem Jeffries and John Fetterman have commented. The excerpt does not say what either of them said.
