  • Open seat: longtime incumbent Deborah Glick, who has held the seat since 1991, is not seeking re-election. David Siffert won a six-way June 23, 2026 Democratic primary with 27.4% of the vote, narrowly defeating Jeannine Kiely (27.3%), Ryder Kessler (22.7%), Benjamin Yee (14.0%), Corinne Arnold (4.5%) and Furhan Ahmad (3.8%). No Republican candidate qualified for the general-election ballot; Kessler, who had also won the Working Families Party primary, withdrew from that line. Siffert is running uncontested in the November 3, 2026 general election.[1]

Issue evidence — side by side

Recorded votes, documented positions and candidates’ own words are shown with sources. “In their own words” quotes a candidate on the topic without inferring a stance. Votes describe specific bills or motions; they do not establish overall support or opposition to a broad issue. A dash means our research has no evidence on that topic, not that the candidate has no position.
