It's primary day in New York today, and voters are casting their ballots for candidates in a newly drawn congressional district in Westchester County.
Incumbent Rep. Jamaal Bowman, a Democrat, will be facing-off with two Westchester County legislators, Vedat Gashi and Catherine Parker, to represent the 16th Congressional District.
The newly drawn lines in the 16th Congressional District have placed this district further north, cutting part of the Bronx out.
Whoever wins will go on to the general election in November, and face Republican Dr. Miriam Levitt Flisser.
