News
Cameron Kasky is in the news as one of the Democratic candidates running in New York’s 12th Congressional District race to replace Rep. Jerry Nadler. He is set to appear at a multi-candidate Democratic forum at Bank Street College, where voters will hear from ten contenders. Separately, a New York appeals court ruling ordering the redrawing of the NY-11 district could reshape nearby political dynamics, which may affect how the broader set of New York City-area races play out.
