George Latimer, a pro-Israel centrist, defeated U.S. Rep. Jamaal Bowman on Tuesday in a Democratic primary in suburban New York that highlighted the party’s deep divisions over the war in Gaza.
Most current members of Congress have been able to repel challenges from within their party, though GOP Rep. Bob Good is in a tight contest with a rival backed by Donald Trump in a race that is too close to call.
In the final stretch of the race, he rallied with liberals Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Sen. Bernie Sanders, while Latimer pulled in the endorsement of former presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.
Also on Tuesday, Democratic voters on Long Island picked former CNN anchor John Avlon as the candidate who will challenge incumbent Republican Rep. Nick LaLota in a district that’s been controlled by the GOP for a decade.
The Long Island congressional district has become a priority for Democrats as the party tries to flip suburban seats in New York as part of a strategy to win a House majority.
In central New York, two other Democrats are vying to become the party’s nominee to take on U.S. Rep. Brandon Williams, a Republican who represents a recently reconfigured congressional district where President Joe Biden beat Trump by 11 points in the 2020 election.
The original article contains 1,096 words, the summary contains 214 words. Saved 80%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
Latimer claimed, on CNN, that over 50% of his funding was from people in the district, while over 90% of Bowman’s was from outside. Couldn’t get Bowman’s response to that because he declined CNN’s invite to appear. Is that what Dems need - pols who can’t be bothered to appear on major cable networks?
This is the best summary I could come up with:

Local headquarters or not, AIPAC represents Israel, NOT Bronx.
Gonna need a source on that. The ass of a conservative Zionist genocide enabler doesn’t count.
Probably has better things to with his time than fend off the bad faith questions of billionaire-owned media
Much better than a corrupt genocide enabler at any rate.
If you screech genocide or Zionist enough times you don’t win, but in fact you lose.
There, fixed it for you. You want another boot to lick or have you had your fill for the day?
As the previous, pretty weak.
Whatever you need to tell yourself to downplay your complicity 🤷
While totally ignoring your own complicity. Well done.
How the fuck am I complicit in a genocide I roundly condemn at every opportunity??
