Overview

• John Mannion, a Democratic state senator, defeated incumbent Republican Rep. Brandon Williams in New York's 22nd Congressional District.
• Mannion secured 53% of the vote, flipping a crucial swing district that includes Syracuse and Utica.
• The district was redrawn earlier this year, making it more favorable for Democrats, as President Biden won it in 2020.
• Brandon Williams, a first-term Republican, was considered one of the most vulnerable incumbents due to the district's redistricting.
• Mannion's win is part of a broader Democratic strategy to regain the House majority, with significant resources invested in this race.
