According to the Post, Stefanik’s departure would mean Gov. Kathy Hochul has to call a special election within 10 days of her seat’s vacancy.
Stefanik won her re-election bid with more than 60% of the vote over Democratic challenger Paula Collins, according to the New York State Board of Elections. The Republican nominee to replace Stefanik will be chosen by county GOP chairs rather than a primary, according to the Post.
The election might be held before President Trump's inauguration.
