Mondaire Jones loses in NY Democratic Primary

Impeachment counsel Daniel Goldman has won the Democratic primary in New York, ousting U.S. Rep. Mondaire Jones from Congress.

Jones, who in 2020 became one of the two first openly gay Black men elected to Congress, finished third in the Democratic primary for New York’s 10th District, behind attorney Daniel Goldman and state Assembly Member Yuh-Line Niou. Goldman had 26 percent, Niou 24 percent and Jones 18 percent in the race, which The Associated Press called at 12:39 a.m. Wednesday.
