WASHINGTON (AP) — Voters in New York’s third congressional district will decide who will complete the remaining 11 months of George Santos’ unfinished term.

Tom Suozzi, the Democratic nominee, and Nassau County legislator Mazi Pilip, the Republican nominee.

The seat became vacant after Santos was expelled from the House late last year after being charged with multiple counts of fraud and stealing from donors.
