AP Race Update: Republican Claudia Tenney secures reelection for U.S. House seat in New York’s 24th District

0

Republican Representative Claudia Tenney has secured her reelection for a seat in the U.S. House, serving the state of New York, in the recent elections held on Tuesday. Tenney’s journey in Congress began in 2016 when she was first elected. However, she faced a setback in her reelection attempt two years after that but managed to reclaim her position in a competitive race during 2020.

Following the redistricting process in New York in 2022, Tenney opted to shift to the 24th Congressional District, which leans more conservative. This newly drawn district stretches across portions of 12 counties in upstate New York, with borders that touch Canada in certain areas along Lake Ontario, as well as featuring the picturesque Finger Lakes region. The announcement of Tenney’s victory was made by news outlets at approximately 10:48 p.m. EST.
