John Mannion defeats Brandon Williams in New York's 22nd Congressional District, ending GOP dominance

spectrumlocalnews.com —

Democrat John Mannion has won the race for New York's 22nd Congressional District, defeating Republican Rep. Brandon Williams with 54% of the vote. This marks the first Democratic win in the district since 2012. Mannion's victory comes after a significant redistricting that made the area slightly more Democratic. The district has historically leaned Republican, despite a Democratic voter advantage and support for Democratic presidential candidates. Mannion, a former teacher and state senator, will be sworn in as a member of Congress in January. The 22nd District includes Syracuse and parts of several counties.
