Elections 2024 : What Happened in New York?

Cable news pundits are debating how Donald Trump beat Kamala Harris. But this panel is for New Yorkers craving insight into the disorienting results of the dozens of city and state races that will also impact their lives.

The Deadline Club has enlisted an all-star panel of reporters to wade through the less-discussed contests that will dictate the future of the Empire State.

Amid a red wave nationally, including a shift in New York City toward Trump, Democrats took 19 congressional seats across the state, including Laura Gillen knocking off incumbent Anthony D'Esposito on Long Island, while Republicans notched seven, with Michael Lawler handily defeating the progressive Mondaire Jones in a district that covers Westchester, Rockland, Putnam, and Dutchess.

Join us for a lively discussion at the Cornell Tech campus on Roosevelt Island featuring THE CITY's Alyssa Katz, Rolling Stone's Nikki McCann Ramirez, Politico's Sally Goldenberg and City & State's Austin Jefferson.

The panel will be moderated by Erin King Sweeney, a former Long Island councilwoman who is the senior associate director of Cornell's Institute of Politics and Global Affairs.

Event in partnership with the Cornell University Institute of Politics and Global Affairs.
