Mondaire Jones in New York to speak out against Dan Goldman's candidacy.
In one of the most high-profile and crowded contests of the summer, ex-prosecutor Dan Goldman narrowly defeated Yuh-Line Niou, a member of the State Assembly from Manhattan who was backed by the Working Families Party for the 10th Congressional District seat. Goldman, who was the richest candidate in the race and gave at least $4 million to his campaign, captured 26% of the vote , while Niou and two other progressives saw nearly 60% of the remaining support divided among them.
Niou has refused to concede, saying she wants to wait until all of the absentee votes are counted. That process could take weeks.
