Hochul backs Goldman in tight New York congressional race
New York Governor Kathy Hochul has made her first joint campaign appearance with Rep. Dan Goldman. The event comes as Goldman fights a tight race for re-election in a closely watched contest. Polls show him in a near-deadlock with opponent Brad Lander. Hochul joined Goldman at a rally, offering strong support for his bid to keep his congressional seat. She highlighted his role in leading the first impeachment inquiry into former President Donald Trump. In her speech, she called Goldman 'ferocious and courageous' for his work during that period.
The endorsement marks Hochul’s first public campaign event alongside the congressman. Goldman, who has represented New York’s 10th District since 2023, faces a competitive challenge from Lander, a fellow Democrat. Recent surveys suggest the race remains too close to call, with both candidates vying for voter support in the final stretch.
Hochul’s appearance signals her backing for Goldman as the election nears. His campaign will likely use her praise to bolster his record on accountability and leadership. The outcome of this race could shape the district’s representation in the coming term.
