new york assembly

The state’s Independent Redistricting Commission will proceed to submit draft maps to the state legislature for new Assembly districts to go into effect in 2025.

The winner of the June 28 primary will face off against incumbent Democratic Assemblywoman Donna Lupardo (D-123) in the general election this fall.

The court kept the existing Assembly maps to stay in place for the 2022 elections.

“We have been advised by Chair Lavine — with the assistance of counsel - of the belief that the constitution does not authorize the legislature to impeach and remove an elected official who is no longer in office.”

"We should be both expeditious and thorough. The state deserves that. The people of New York deserve that."

The firm has received more than 100,000 pages of documents to sort through as part of the inquiry, which is far-reaching and not limited to any one allegation against Cuomo.

“Yes we punish the criminals, but [make sure] that the punishment fits the crime, and that you don’t continue to pay for the crime long after you’ve done the time.”

"Even if the court ends up dismissing the violation, that one day or few days that you spend in jail are enough to lose your job."

Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie said it’s still possible that a session will be held before 2020 ends on more substantive issues.

Absentee ballots will be counted next week
