"New York Special Elections: Impact on GOP Majority and Suburban Battle"

The upcoming special election in New York's 3rd Congressional District could further shrink the GOP's thin majority in the House of Representatives. The race is close, with former Democratic Rep. Tom Suozzi running against Republican Nassau County Legislator Mazi Pilip. The outcome will impact Republican hopes of impeaching officials and passing crucial legislation. The GOP's narrow majority has made it difficult for party leaders to hold votes, and the upcoming election will be crucial in determining the future balance of power in the House.
