Cait Conley (D)
Cait Conley – the ProChoice Voter endorsed candidate – won the Democratic Primary. Cait won all four counties (Rockland, Putnam, Westchester north of White Plains, and part of Dutchess County), taking 49+% of the vote, with her four opponents splitting the rest. Cait will face MAGA loyalist Mike Lawler in November.
Cait is a fourth-generation Hudson Valley native and the daughter of a postal worker and a construction worker. She is a decorated combat veteran and national security expert who has spent her life answering the call to serve. That call began on 9/11, when, as a junior in high school, she watched the Twin Towers fall. The next day, she started the process for applying to West Point — earning acceptance and becoming the first in her family to graduate from college and then going on later to attend graduate programs at Harvard and MIT. Cait served 16 years as an active duty Army officer, deploying six times to take down the world’s most dangerous terrorists, and later led counterterrorism efforts on the National Security Council and at the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency. Throughout her career, Cait has been called upon to solve the toughest problems and fix things that are broken. That’s why Cait is running for Congress — to fix a broken system and fight for a better future for New Yorkers. Cait Conley website
