New York Assemblyman Micah Lasher won the Democratic primary to replace retiring Rep. Jerry Nadler, defeating a crowded field that included George Conway, John Schlossberg and Alex Bores. Bores’s support for a state AI-safety law made the race a focus of competing tech-industry spending.
Micah Lasher won the Democratic primary for the Manhattan seat being vacated by Jerry Nadler. The field included George Conway, John Schlossberg and fellow New York Assemblyman Alex Bores; Nadler’s retirement created an open-seat contest after more than three decades in office.
Lasher had support from Nadler and other prominent New York Democrats, including Gov. Kathy Hochul and former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg. Bores’s campaign drew attention for his support of New York’s RAISE Act, described as an AI-safety law, and the article says tech-aligned super PACs spent millions opposing him.
The article says Lasher is heavily favored in the November general election in the solidly Democratic district.
