Two special elections will be held today in parts of New York City to fill two vacancies. Voters on Staten Island and parts of Brooklyn will go to the polls today to determine who will represent them in Washington. Staten Island District Attorney Daniel Donovan (R) is facing former State Senator and current New York City Councilman Vincent Gentile (D) in the race for 11th Congressional District seat.

In Brooklyn, the 43rd Assembly District seat vacated by Assemblyman Karim Camara, who resigned to work in Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s administration, will be filled after today’s election. Democrat and district leader Shirley Patterson is supported by Borough President Eric Adams. Patterson will face Diana Richardson, who is supported by the Working Families Party and formerly worked for Senator Kevin Parker. Other candidates in the race include Geoffrey Davis and Republican Menachem Raitport.
