Who could replace George Santos if he’s expelled from Congress
"Rep. George Santos (R-N.Y.) predicts that he's soon to be expelled from Congress, which would lead to a special election to fill the vacancy in New York's third Congressional district.
Why it matters: Democrats are vying to re-claim a district that President Biden carried in 2020, while Republicans are hoping to keep the seat that Santos flipped.
New York House seats have also become an unusual battleground for a favorably blue state, in part due to redistricting. Democrats have cited midterm losses in the state as contributing to Republicans narrowly gaining the House majority.
Catch up quick: The contents of an Ethics Committee report — which found that Santos "blatantly stole" from his campaign — caused several lawmakers who had previously voted against his expulsion to change their tune."
