Same District: Reps. Jerry Nadler and Carolyn Maloney.
The maps for New York’s 26 congressional districts will play an instrumental role in whether Democrats can retain control of the House in the midterm elections, and the latest maps drawn by a special master after a successful court case by Republicans would pit several Democrats against one another.
The maps would create five districts that contain the homes of multiple incumbents, potentially setting the stage for several high-profile battles for August and November. Those include a battle for parts of Manhattan between Democratic veteran Reps. Jerry Nadler and Carolyn Maloney.
Nadler ripped the proposed lines, but added that “provided that they become permanent, I very much look forward to running in and representing the people of the newly created 12th District of New York.”

''The plan also left in place a largely Manhattan district that is expected to lead to a primary between well-tenured Democratic Reps. Jerry Nadler and Carolyn Maloney. The state’s primary is Aug. 23.''
