Incumbent Democrat Charles B. Rangel, who was redistricted from the 15th district and was censured by the House of Representatives after being found guilty of ethics violations, filed to run for re-election in February 2011.[34] Vincent Morgan, a former member of Rangel's staff who unsuccessfully challenged Rangel in the 2010, will run again.[35] State senator Adriano Espaillat;[36] Joyce Johnson;[35] former state assemblyman Adam Clayton Powell IV, who has unsuccessfully challenged Rangel twice in the past;[35] assemblyman Robert J. Rodriguez;[36] Clyde Williams, a former adviser to Bill Clinton and a former political director of the Democratic National Committee;[37] and assemblyman Keith Wright[35][36] may also seek the Democratic nomination.[needs update]

On the night of the June 26 primary, it seemed as though the incumbent Rangel had defeated his closest challenger, State Senator Espaillat, by a 45%-40% margin; Rangel celebrated victory and Espaillat conceded defeat.[38] However, as the counting continued, that margin narrowed considerably. A number of precincts were very late in reporting and Espaillat went to court claiming irregularities in that his supporters had been improperly turned away from polling locations.[38][39] On Saturday July 7, 2012, Rangel received the primary victory by a margin of 990 votes. The New York City Board of Elections released that Rangel received 18,940 votes and Espaillat had 17,950.[39] On July 9, 2012, Espaillat conceded the election to Rangel.[39]

District 19

Republican Chris Gibson, who was redistricted from the 20th district, has represented that district since 2011. With redistricting settled, the new 19th district went from being a Republican-leaning district to being a swing district.[50] Because of the dissolution of Maurice Hinchey's district, much of that district, including all of Ulster and Sullivan counties, was dissolved into this new district. Ulster County Executive Mike Hein declined to seek the Democratic nomination.[51][52] Former federal prosecutor and Ulster County Democratic Party chairman, Julian Schreibman, sought the Democratic nomination. Joel Tyner, a member of the Dutchess County legislature, also sought the Democratic nomination to challenge Gibson.[53][54] Schreibman prevailed in the Democratic primary.[55]

Republican businessman Matt Doheny, who unsuccessfully challenged Democratic incumbent Bill Owens (who was redistricted from the 23rd district) in 2010, chose to run again.[56][57] Doheny secured the Independence Party line[58] and the Conservative Party lines, the latter of which he did not have in 2010.[59] Kelly Eustis, the 23-year-old executive director of One Nation PAC, eventually deciding against running.[60] Jeff Stabins, an eccentric politician who until recently lived in Hernando County, Florida, expressed interest in the GOP nomination, having relocated to Sacketts Harbor, New York to seek the seat.[61] Corrections officer Tim Stampfler announced his self-described long-shot candidacy in December 2011.[62] Kellie Greene, an Oswego County native and theologian who most recently lived in Arizona, announced her intention to return to New York to primary Doheny in January 2012.[63] Colton resident and anti-cancer activist Donald Hassig sought and received the Green Party nomination;[64] Hassig appeared on the Green line despite the party's disavowal of him over his stance on immigration.[65] Doheny defeated Greene in the Republican primary, and appeared on the Republican, Conservative, and Independence Party lines in the fall election.[66] Hassig dropped out of the race November 3, endorsing Owens, but remained on the ballot.[67]

Incumbent Republican Tom Reed, who was redistricted from the 29th district, was elected to his seat in November 2010. Reed was initially noncommittal regarding re-election, stating in July 2011 that "Re-election is the farthest thing from my mind;"[72] he officially announced for re-election on April 30, 2012.[73] Under the proposed redistricting plan set forth by the special master, Tompkins County (currently in district 22) would be redistricted into Reed's district, which would pit candidates for that area up against Reed. Matthew Zeller, an Afghanistan war veteran and former CIA officer who unsuccessfully challenged Reed in 2010, has endorsed Tompkins County legislator Nate Shinagawa for the 23rd district seat.[74] Nate Shinagawa won the Democratic Primary election over Leslie Danks Burke (also an Ithaca resident) and Melissa Dobson on June 26, 2012.[75]

Republican Ann Marie Buerkle, who has represented the 25th district since 2011, sought re-election in the 24th district.[76] Dan Maffei, who represented the 25th district from 2009 until 2011,[77] and Brianne Murphy, an attorney,[78] sought the Democratic nomination to challenge Buerkle. Tom Buckel, a member of the Onondaga County legislature, had considered seeking the Democratic nomination;[78] however Buckel decided instead to run for the New York Supreme Court.[79] On February 6, Robert Paul Spencer announced he would run in the Republican Primary against Buerkle, citing his opposition to Buerkle's vote in favor of the National Defense Authorization Act, which Spencer believed to be unconstitutional.[80] Buerkle and Maffei won their respective party nominations and were joined on the general election ballot by Ursula Rozum, a 28-year-old public-transportation advocate serving as the Green Party nominee.[81]

Incumbent Democrat Brian Higgins, who was redistricted from the 27th district, sought re-election. Although his district was expected to become more friendly to Democrats in redistricting, the defeat of Higgins' protege, Chris Fahey, to Republican-backed Democrat Michael P. Kearns in a New York State Assembly race led to the perception that Higgins may have been more vulnerable than previously believed.[87] Previous names linked to runs on the Republican line included 2010 gubernatorial nominee Carl Paladino and former Bills running back Thurman Thomas, both of whom declined to seek the seat. Michael H. Madigan, a Grand Island businessman, served as the Republican nominee for the seat.[88]

Former Erie County Executive Chris Collins[89] and David Bellavia, whose petition to run in the 2011 election was rejected, faced each other in the Republican primary; Collins prevailed.[90][91]

Barry Weinstein, the town supervisor of Amherst;[92] former New York Attorney General Dennis Vacco;[93] Assembly Minority Leader Brian Kolb (who has historically rejected calls to seek higher office),[94] and state senator and former Erie County sheriff Patrick Gallivan[95] were all linked to potential runs for the seat, although all of them either declined or never followed through.
