An eye-watering $308 million was pumped into New York State congressional races during the 2026 midterm campaign – including some $64 million spent in the Empire State’s most closely watched battleground. The fight for the suburban 17th Congressional District in New York’s Hudson Valley brought in $64 million between a heated Democratic Party primary and the general election, including spending by the campaigns and political action committee. About $22 million of that total was spent during the Democratic primary that saw military veteran and eventual election winner Cait Conley beat out Beth Davidson and Peter Chatzky, according to campaign finance records.
