Daniel Goldman defeated 11 other candidates in New York's 10th Congressional District Democratic primary on August 23, 2022. Candidates who received significant media attention were U.S. Rep. Mondaire Jones, who was elected in 2020 to represent the 17th District and ran in the 10th after redistricting; prosecutor Daniel Goldman; former U.S. Rep. Elizabeth Holtzman; state Assemblymember Yuh-Line Niou; New York City Council Member Carlina Rivera; and state Assemblymember Jo Anne Simon.^[1]^[2]^[3] Former New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio withdrew from the race on July 19.^[4]

Noteworthy endorsements in the race included: two U.S. Senators and six U.S. House members endorsed Jones, New York State Assembly Member Robert C. Carroll (D) and The New York Times endorsed Goldman, feminist activist Gloria Steinem and the New York Daily News endorsed Holtzman, Parent Leaders for Accelerated Curriculum & Education endorsed Maron, New York State Senator Julia Salazar (D) and three New York State Assembly members endorsed Niou, two U.S. House members endorsed Rivera, and State Sen. Roxanne Persaud and five New York State Assembly members endorsed Simon.^[5]^[6]^[7] To see official endorsement lists published on candidate campaign websites for any candidates that made that information available, click here.

The New York Times wrote that the redrawn 10th District included "some of New York’s most politically engaged and diverse neighborhoods: Greenwich Village, Wall Street, Chinatown, Park Slope, Sunset Park and even parts of Borough Park, an ultra-Orthodox Jewish stronghold." The Times called the primary "a contest not so much of ideas — almost every major candidate has condemned threats to abortion rights and bemoaned the lack of strict limits on guns — as of brute force, blunt ambition and identity politics."^[1]

Axios called the district "a potential venue for Democrats to expose various internal rifts as candidates fight for a simple plurality of the vote, where the winner can advance with far less than 50%."^[8]

The 17th District Jones was elected to in 2020 did not overlap with the redrawn 10th.^[9] Jones' campaign spokesman Bill Neidhardt said that Jones "refused to primary fellow Black progressive Rep. Jamaal Bowman when his residence was drawn into Bowman’s district. … He also wanted to avoid a member-on-member primary with Rep. Sean Patrick Maloney."^[10] Maloney was elected to represent the 18th District starting in 2013 and ran in the redrawn 17th in 2022.

At the time of the election, Jones led in fundraising with $3.3 million, followed by Goldman with $1.2 million and Rivera with $401,000.

Rep. Jerrold Nadler, the 10th District incumbent, ran in the redrawn 12th. Twenty-eight percent of the redrawn 10th District's population was from the old 10th.^[9]

Mondaire Jones

Party: Democratic Party

Incumbent: Yes

Political Office:

United States House of Representatives - New York's 17th (Assumed office: 2021)

Biography: Jones received a bachelor’s degree in political science from Stanford University and a law degree from Harvard University. Before holding political office, he worked as a law clerk for Judge Andrew L. Clark, as an attorney for Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, and an attorney for the Westchester County Law Department.

Key Messages

The following key messages were curated by Ballotpedia staff. For more on how we identify key messages, click here.

Jones said he was one of the most legislatively active freshman members of Congress. He said he was a progressive who was “uniquely good at building coalitions that extend far outside of the progressive movement.”

Jones said his experience “[growing] up in Section 8 housing and on food stamps, raised by a single mom who had to work multiple jobs to provide for [his] family” led him to support the American Rescue Plan and co-sponsor a bill supporting universal childcare and early learning.

Jones said his experience as one of the first Black, openly gay members of Congress informed his belief that “we need bold, progressive leaders willing to protect our fundamental rights. That’s why I introduced legislation to add four seats to the Supreme Court and protect the right to an abortion, the right to vote, and the right to marriage equality.”

Elizabeth Holtzman

Party: Democratic Party

Incumbent: No

Political Office: None

Submitted Biography: "A lifelong advocate for women’s rights, I have broken through many barriers, clearing the way for other women to follow. My robust record as a Congresswoman, DA and Comptroller shows I know how to fight successfully for the environment, reproductive rights, and racial and economic justice, and against gun violence, discrimination, and attacks on our democracy. Using deep expertise and new ideas, I will stand up to MAGA Republicans and get the results we need. In Congress, I took on Nixon, voting for his impeachment during Watergate. Joining four US Air Force pilots, I sued to stop the US bombing of Cambodia. I created a Nazi-hunting unit that brought Nazi war criminals in the US to justice. As DA, I asked the Supreme Court to ban racial discrimination in jury selection; the Court agreed, acknowledging my office’s work. As Comptroller, I used the power of municipal pension funds to create tens of thousands of affordable housing units; persuaded municipal hospitals, then Medicare, to cover screening mammograms; shut down polluting incinerators; and toughened Exxon’s settlement for its oil spill in the Arthur Kill. Born and raised in Brooklyn, I am the daughter of immigrants and a long-time resident of the borough. "

Key Messages

To read this candidate's full survey responses, click here.

I have always been a fighter, creative thinker and doer — I reformed rape laws to protect victims when no one else did, I led the fight to ban discrimination in jury selection, I fought sexual harassment in the workplace before #MeToo, and I wrote one of the first books calling for the impeachment of Trump. Gloria Steinem: “Liz has always been among the first and the bravest in our history, the smartest and the most trusted. . . This country, not just New York City, must benefit from Liz's leadership.”

My core agenda: Standing up to the radical right to combat gun violence and fight crime while taking on police misconduct. Fighting for women’s reproductive rights and against discrimination, prejudice and bigotry of all kinds. Innovatively addressing the crisis of climate change. Taking on the oil industry and the price gouging that is fueling inflation.

These are dangerous times, We need a leader in Congress with a proven record and deep legislative and litigation expertise. We need a fighter who will take on the forces now unleashed on America’s women and on public safety, our environment, and our democracy. I know how to stand up to the right wing, the NRA, and big oil and gas, and get results. I was a fearless fighter in Congress before. I will be a courageous fighter in Congress for you again. Gloria Steinem: “Liz is the very epitome of what we hope for when we send representatives to Washington.”

Jimmy Jiang Li

Party: Democratic Party

Incumbent: No

Political Office: None

Submitted Biography: "I am a lifelong Democrat and not a career politician. Growing up as the son of immigrants, I understand the issues and struggles immigrant and working family face daily because it was my experience growing up. I am an everyday New Yorker and a grass-root community advocate for my immigrant and working-class neighbors for more than a decade. I have lived in District 10 most of my life and know the issues confronted by the communities in District 10 well. I co-founded the NYC Asian-American Democratic Club and Asian American Community Empowerment, a nonprofit coalition of Asian American organizations of more than 60 member organizations nationwide. I worked closely with other community leaders and allies on Anti-AAPI Hate, DACA, gentrification and affordable housing, high quality education for all, and other important social issues. I have always been and will continue to be committed to helping my community from the ground up. District 10 needs a strong representative to enact legislation instead of campaign platitudes. I believe we must act now to improve public safety in our community, advance racial equity, combat hate crimes, provide high quality education for our children, care for our seniors, and support and protect small businesses. I believe that empowering the community with agency, engagement, and inclusivity are key for social change and social equality. These core values will define my actions, decision-making, and governing policy as NY District 10’s congressman."

Key Messages

To read this candidate's full survey responses, click here.

Racial Equity and Hate Crimes-I will work diligently to bring people who live in different corners of the city together to work toward our common good by creating opportunities for dialogue. I will launch initiative that would help to break down some of the barriers that divide and support programs that reduce childhood poverty, narrow educational gaps, improve income and employment opportunities for marginalized populations, and quality health care for all.

Education and Poverty-I believe we need to tax the rich to fund more educational programs for marginalized communities. I will fight to invest heavily in early education and made free or affordable childcare available for all New Yorkers. I support policies that will help to alleviate this burden such as tuition free college, streamlining existing forgiveness programs, and expanding Pell Grant. I will advocate funds for college-to-career programs and job or vocational training programs that would allow people to obtain living-wage jobs in NYC.

Immigration-As the Immigration Committee Chair for a local community board, I worked closely with immigrant communities. We need to expand more services, such as language access and free legal consultations to our documented and undocumented brothers and sisters. We need to provide a citizenship pathway for all immigrants. We need to continue and expand DACA to help our undocumented youths to obtain citizenship. Furthermore, we must end the separation of families at the border expeditiously.

Yan Xiong

Party: Democratic Party

Incumbent: No

Political Office: None

Submitted Biography: "As a refugee from China, I came to the United States to live in a society where all people are treated equally and inclusively. Inspired by the liberty of America, I am running for Congress in District 10 because I want to make government truly work for everyone. Too often, our neighbors and loved ones are left behind by inaction, inequity, or injustice in our country. How can we allow our current Congressman to remain in office when so many in our district are struggling economically, physically, or mentally? As a community leader, pastor, and veteran, I know the issues we face, and I know how to work together to fix them. I understand the challenge of restoring your trust in Congress so that we can plan a new path forward as we rebuild our country. I am inspired that we came together as a community of all people, to take care of and protect one another during the pandemic. But there is much more work to be done for our citizens. As we continue to recover, it is imperative that we have leaders who are PRESENT in our communities, so they can learn what help is needed to build back better than ever before! No elected official should be able to legislate on behalf of their constituents, without proving their presence in the district, or without fostering their trust with residents and local business owners. We are communities built on acceptance, persistence, and hard work. It's time for real solutions, and I will stop at nothing to rebuild and modernize our communities."

Key Messages

To read this candidate's full survey responses, click here.

No one should worry about their safety because of how they look or where they come from. We must restore compassion to our society, and make our district a place of refuge and advancement. Our citizens deserve access to safe streets, subways and parks without fear of attack.

I will fight to rebuild our economy and incentivize local businesses to open right here in our neighborhoods.

We must be steadfast in our commitment to provide quality education in order to serve our students better. Our children deserve to thrive in school academically, emotionally and physically.

Elizabeth Holtzman (D)

Harnessing my congressional experience and litigation expertise in these dangerous times to fight MAGA Republican attacks on our public safety, environment and reproductive rights.

Using the government’s purchasing power to eliminate assault weapons sales to civilians and reduce handgun proliferation. -- The contracting process must require codes of conduct, holding firearms industry vendors accountable. I introduced one of the country’s first bills to hold gunmakers liable, signed into law by Mayor Bloomberg, and know how to stand up to the NRA.

Combating attacks on clean air and water and our climate. -- I blocked a mayoral plan for nine new incinerators and shut down all existing ones, and created the first environmental crimes unit in NY. I’ll find new ways of increasing renewable energy’s competitiveness and expanding green affordable housing and jobs.

Fighting right-wing attacks on women’s rights and attempts to control our bodies. -- https://drive.google.com/file/d/1DqqlxX17M4_HIk_F1hAWPVWsr-vtN8og/view?usp=sharing

I cofounded the Congressional Women’s Caucus, authored laws protecting rape victims, extended the ERA deadline, strengthened the Equal Pay Act, gained Medicare coverage for screening mammograms, and hired women-owned firms to manage NYC pension funds and handle bond sales. I’ll work within and around Congress against state interference with women’s reproductive healthcare, and state laws violating women's constitutional and statutory rights.

Jimmy Jiang Li (D)

Combat AAPI Hate–As president of NYCADC, we’ve started an online petition that collected almost 50, 000 signatures in support of Congresswoman Grace Meng's hate crime bill. As District 10’s congressional representative, I will work hard on racial equity and fight against any acts of violence rooted in hate. We also need AAPI history to be included in our core curriculum. This country was built by immigrants. The contributions made by immigrants are not well taught in American history books. We need to revise our curriculum to reflect that. Health Care–Free or affordable healthcare should be available for everyone. It is a basic human right for everyone. I support Medicare for All and free or affordable healthcare. We need to regulate prescription drug prices. We must expand access to mental health care, including support for those experiencing homelessness by improving the budget for State mental health services and programs. Reproductive Rights–It is women's right to choose! In 2022, many other countries offer reproductive rights to their women. The United States, as a role model for the world, shouldn't even need to have a conversation on this. I am outraged by the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe V. Wade. I support any legislation that protects women’s abortion rights. We need to end the US Senate filibuster and impose term limits on Supreme Court justices. We need some check and balance on the power of supreme court justices so people's voices don't get ignored.

NYC needs fresh ideas. I have the leadership experience, honed over a decade of successfully founding my own company and running it, as well as the creative vision and follow through to bring ideas to fruition. As a writer, and a creative, my sense for the good in people, and understanding of the power that genuine empathy conveys to people's hearts, give me the confidence I possess the qualities to deliver only the best to district 10 of NYC. I will go to work everyday fighting to make everybody's experience here in the city a better one. My heart and intuition informs my direction in life, and right now, I know this is where I need to be, fighting for my family, and the people of NYC. My focuses for the city will be public safety, infrastructure improvements, especially the subway system, and keeping schools open.

My first job was a law school summer internship working for a Black civil rights attorney in Albany, Georgia. Seeing the horrors of Jim Crow up close, when I returned to law school I helped set up a national civil rights organization that brought law students to the South. My experience impelled me to fight against racial injustice for the rest of my life.

Elizabeth Holtzman (D)

Yes.

Both sitting representatives and candidates for office hear many personal stories from the residents of their district. Is there a story that you’ve heard that you found particularly touching, memorable, or impactful?

Elizabeth Holtzman (D)

In Congress, a constituent reported a complaint about a clogged sewer. She appeared not to be functioning well, and when we asked how she was doing, she explained that she had a rare disease. She needed to rely on a drug that her physician made by hand because no drug for the disease was available on the market, and he hadn’t been able to give her the drug for some days.

I called this constituent's physician to discuss her problem, with her consent. The reason that pharmaceutical companies did not offer a drug for her disease was that the patent life would be far too short to recoup their expenses, given the limited demand. I asked the physician to come meet with the FDA and myself in Washington, D.C. to discuss the problem faced by my constituent and others suffering from rare diseases.

Soon thereafter, I introduced the Orphan Drug Act, providing incentives for the development of drugs for rare diseases. This bill received bipartisan support and became law, leading to the development of hundreds, if not thousands, of drugs for victims of rare diseases. This is what listening carefully to constituents can do.

General election race ratings

See also: Race rating definitions and methods

Ballotpedia provides race ratings from four outlets: The Cook Political Report, Inside Elections, Sabato's Crystal Ball, and DDHQ/The Hill. Each race rating indicates if one party is perceived to have an advantage in the race and, if so, the degree of advantage:

Safe and Solid ratings indicate that one party has a clear edge and the race is not competitive.
Likely ratings indicate that one party has a clear edge, but an upset is possible.
Lean ratings indicate that one party has a small edge, but the race is competitive.^[11]
Toss-up ratings indicate that neither party has an advantage.

Race ratings are informed by a number of factors, including polling, candidate quality, and election result history in the race's district or state.^[12]^[13]^[14]

Post-filing deadline analysis

The following analysis covers all U.S. House districts up for election in New York in 2022. Information below was calculated on August 18, 2022, and may differ from information shown in the table above due to candidate replacements and withdrawals after that time.

One hundred six candidates filed to run for New York's 26 U.S. House districts, including 67 Democrats and 39 Republicans. That's 4.08 candidates per district, more than the four candidates per district in 2020 and the 3.15 in 2018.

This was the first election to take place under new district lines following the 2020 census, which resulted in New York losing one U.S. House district. The 106 candidates who ran this year were two fewer than the 108 who ran in 2020 and 21 more than the 85 who ran in 2018. Seventy-seven candidates ran in 2016, 55 in 2014, and 81 in 2012.

Four incumbents ran in districts other than the ones they represented at the time. Rep. Claudia Tenney (R), who represented the 22nd district, ran in the 24th. Rep. Sean Maloney (D), who represented the 18th district, ran in the 17th, and Rep. Mondaire Jones (D), the incumbent in the 17th, ran in the 10th.

Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D), who represented the 10th district, ran in the 12th this year. Rep. Carolyn Maloney (D), the incumbent in the 12th district, ran for re-election, making the 12th the only New York district in 2022 where two incumbents ran against each other.

Five incumbents—two Democrats and three Republicans—did not file to run for re-election. Rep. Lee Zeldin (R), who represented the 1st district, and Rep. Tom Suozzi (D), who represented the 3rd district, filed to run for governor. Rep. John Katko (R), who represented the 24th district, and Rep. Kathleen Rice (D), who represented the 4th district, retired. Rep. Christopher Jacobs (R), who represented the 27th district, also retired. The 27th district was eliminated after 2022 due to redistricting.

There were seven open seats this year, a decade-high. That number was up from four in 2020, and from one in 2018. There were four open seats in 2016 and two in 2014 and 2012.

The open seats included Zeldin’s 1st district, Suozzi’s 3rd, Rice’s 4th, Maloney’s 18th, and Tenney’s 22nd. Additionally, the 19th and the 23rd district were vacant before the primaries took place. Rep. Antonio Delgado (D), who represented the 19th, was appointed Lt. Governor of New York, and Rep. Tom Reed (R), who represented the 23rd, resigned after a sexual misconduct allegation. Special elections were held on August 23 to fill both seats.

Fourteen candidates ran to replace Nadler in the 10th district, the most candidates who ran for a seat this year. One of the candidates, former New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio (D), unofficially withdrew from the race, but his name appeared on the ballot.

There were 16 contested Democratic primaries this year, the same number as in 2020, and three more than in 2018, when there were 13. There were 10 contested Democratic primaries in 2016, five in 2014, and 10 in 2012.

There were eight contested Republican primaries. That was one more than in 2020, when there were seven contested Republican primaries, and seven more than in 2018, when there was only one. There were three contested Republican primaries in 2016, five in 2014, and five in 2012.

Seven incumbents did not face any primary challengers this year. One seat—the 5th— was guaranteed to Democrats because no Republicans filed. No seats were guaranteed to Republicans because no Democrats filed.
