Former New York City Comptroller Brad Lander defeated incumbent Rep. Dan Goldman (D-NY) in the Democratic primary for New York’s 10th Congressional District on Tuesday evening after Mayor Zohran Mamdani endorsed him.

With 42% of the vote counted as of Tuesday evening, Lander took 62.8% of the vote compared to Goldman’s 37%, according to the Associated Press. In the deep-blue area of New York City, Lander is likely a shoo-in for the top spot in the November general election.
