"I look forward to many more years of serving the community, serving our state and serving our country," Schmitt said. "I look forward to having conversations with many of you about where the best hunting spot is, because I can't wait for bow hunting season. Bow hunting season starts Saturday. Now I have a lot more time to spend out in the woods if my wife will let me."

The race for the 18th Congressional District, which encompasses parts of Orange, Putnam, and Ulster counties is still undecided.
Former
Ulster County Executive Pat Ryan is serving the rest of now-Lt. Gov. Antonio
Delgado's term - after defeating Dutchess County Executive Marc Molinaro in the
August special election.
Some of Ryan's priorities are safeguarding the
environment, making sure middle-class people get a tax cut, and ensuring
reproductive rights for women.
Republican
Assembly Member Colin Schmitt is challenging him. Schmitt is running on
tackling inflation, repealing cashless bail, and strengthening border security.
