5. There are actually 2 challengers to Stefanik now. Looks like there could be a Democratic primary

And I wouldn't be surprised if a few more names turned up. The last time, there were about 10 Democrats in the primary and one other Republican!

And New York 21 had a long-time moderate Democrat as a Rep, Bill Owens, but he retired in 2015. He chose a successor, Aaron Woolf, and I went to the meet-up where Rep. Owens introduced him and I was impressed, I made GOTV calls for him - but he inexplicably lost to Stefanik and, despite the number of protests that there have been at her local headquarters since her first term, we've been stuck with her ever since - and she's gotten excessively worse over time.
