Democratic Ulster County Executive Pat Ryan says he will run in the forthcoming special election to replace Congressman Antonio Delgado. Delgado, who defeated Ryan in the 2018 primary, will be leaving the current 19th district to become lieutenant governor. Ryan’s campaign says he will then campaign in the new 18th district this fall. Dutchess County Executive Marc Molinaro, a Republican candidate in the current 19th district, says he will continue running there. The special election to complete Delgado’s term is likely to be in August.
