Summary
Michael DeCillis secured the Democratic nomination Tuesday, setting up a Nov. 3 House race against Republican Rep. Nicole Malliotakis in New York.
DeCillis, a former EMT, NYPD officer and special education teacher, centered his campaign on resisting President Donald Trump and cast Malliotakis as a “MAGA loyalist.”
The matchup lands in a closely watched fight for House control, though DeCillis faces a steep climb after Malliotakis won reelection in 2024 by 63.8% to 35.8%.
For DeCillis, the general election is also a third try at the seat after he dropped out before the general election in both 2018 and 2022.
