Tom Suozzi won the special election in New York's Congressional District by emphasizing border security and a bipartisan approach to immigration.
Suozzi's victory is seen as a potential playbook for Democrats nationally, suggesting a more aggressive stance on immigration could be beneficial.
Critics argue that local factors and Suozzi's personal popularity played a significant role in his win, cautioning against generalizing the strategy.
