Submitted by the Office of Gov. Kathy Hochul
Gov. Kathy Hochul announced a special election to fill the vacancies in the 47th and 61st Senate districts, and the 36th Assembly District, will be held Tuesday, Feb. 3. The vacancies were created by the resignations of former State Sen. Brad Hoylman-Sigal, former State Sen. Sean Ryan, and former Assembly member Zohran Mamdani, respectively. Hochul issued the proclamation on Jan. 2 pursuant to the public officers law.
“These state legislators represented their communities with distinction in Albany, and we wish them well in their next chapters,” Hochul said. “To ensure constituents of these districts are represented in the State Legislature, there will be a special election on Feb. 3, 2026, to fill the vacancies. I look forward to working with their successors and working on the issues that matter to New Yorkers.”
