Description | Democrats aren’t just targeting Republicans in Congress next year – Westchester County Executive George Latimer has reportedly been approached about primarying Rep. Jamaal Bowman in the 16th Congressional District. The move to unseat the popular incumbent in the safely blue district raised immediate eyebrows among political observers. But if he chose to run, Latimer could give Bowman a serious challenge – especially as Bowman faces headwinds on the issue of Israel.
Latimer told News12 that he is “thinking about the advice I have been given and will have more to come.” He didn’t immediately respond to a request for further comment from City & State, so the prospect of whether he would actually run remains murky. Latimer just won reelection to his second term as Westchester County executive in 2021, but will be term-limited out of office in 2025. |
