In the Hudson Valley, three Congressional districts are primed for competitive races as Republicans aim to maintain their House majority against Democratic challengers. Notably, first-term Reps. Marc Molinaro and Mike Lawler face challenges from Democrats Josh Riley and Mondaire Jones, respectively, with all three districts considered toss-ups. In South Carolina, Democrats are targeting four historically blue state House seats while Republicans anticipate potential gains in the state Senate due to demographic shifts. Meanwhile, voters nationwide will largely have access to early voting options ahead of the November 5 election, with states like Alabama already sending mail ballots. In Maine, all legislative seats are up for grabs, with several incumbents not running, leading to significant fundraising in open races. Key dates for the general election in New York include early voting from October 26 to November 3, with Election Day set for November 5.
