The Long Island race pits former Rep. Tom Suozzi , a Democrat who represented the district for three terms, against Republican Mazi Pilip , a county legislator.
The seat, which represents suburbs just east of New York City plus a small part of Queens , became vacant after disgraced Rep. George Santos was expelled from the House late last year after getting charged with multiple counts of fraud and stealing from donors.
Suozzi has some of the advantages that usually come with incumbency.
He had a comfortable victory in his last race in the district in 2020 , defeating Santos , then a relatively unknown Republican .
But his spectacular crash-and-burn tenure in Congress could linger in the minds of voters weighing a choice between parties.
