Jamaal Bowman Upsets Rep. Engel In N.Y. Democratic Primary

Jamaal Bowman, a principal from the 16th District Middle School, defeated incumbent Eliot Engel in the New York primary, largely due to increased support from the Black Lives Matter movement and endorsements from prominent figures like Senators Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders. The election results were delayed as the State Board of Elections took extra time to verify mail-in and in-person ballots. Bowman's victory is almost certain as the 16th district is heavily Democratic, with no Republicans running.
