Malliotakis beats Caldarera, readies to take on Rose
Nicole Malliotakis is now the Republican candidate for New York’s 11th Congressional District, setting up a race with incumbent U.S. Rep. Max Rose in November.
Although COVID-19 has delayed many election results and absentee ballots still must be counted, Malliotakis declared victory at around 10 p.m. on Tuesday.
As of 11:30 p.m., she had 70.5 percent of the vote and challenger Joe Caldarera had 29.5 percent. Caldarera called Malliotakis to concede.
