While most races have been called (most of which went in favor of Democrats), there were still some pending races throughout the tri-state.
In New York, there were three House races on Long Island that had still yet to be called: NY-1, NY-2 and NY-4.
In New York’s 1st District, Republican incumbent Nicholas LaLota faced off against Democratic challenger Christopher Gallant. As of 8 a.m. Tuesday, LaLota had a slim lead over Gallant, with just over 86% of the vote in, but it was still too close to call.
In the 2nd District, incumbent Republican Andrew Garbarino faced off against Democrat Patrick Halpin in a tight race.
As of 8 a.m. Tuesday, just over 78% of the vote was in, with Halpin and Garbarino neck-and-neck, separated by just a couple thousand votes.
In New York’s 4th District, Democrat incumbent Laura Gillen had a lead over Republican challenger Jeanine Driscoll. While Gillen led by nearly 40,000 voters, 85% of votes were in as of 8 a.m. Tuesday.
In the tightly contested race for NY-17, no projected winner had been declared between Republican incumbent Rep. Mike Lawler and Democratic challenger Cait Conley. However, when addressing supporters Tuesday night, Lawler said he had called Conley to concede the race.
NBC News had not projected a winner in the race as of 8 a.m. Tuesday.
The only other race in the state that had not yet been called was the House seat in the 21st District, in Upstate New York.
Republican Anthony Constantino held a slim lead over Democrat Blake Gendebien, with more than 81% of the vote reporting, but no projection had yet been made.
In New Jersey, the only race that has not yet been called is the race for the House seat in District 2. Incumbent Republican Jeff Van Drew faced off against Democrat Zack Mullock.
As of 8 a.m. Tuesday, Mullock had a slim lead, with 51.1% of the vote so far. However, there were still ballots to be counted, with 89% of votes tallied.
Van Drew reportedly conceded in the race, though NBC News has not yet projected a winner.
