Compare

[Appointed NY Lt. Governor May 3, 2022 ; Resigned May 25, 2022.] Antonio Delgado is at home in an unlikely area, thanks to his frequent town-hall meetings and a focus on locally-oriented lawmaking. The former high school basketball standout, rapper, Rhodes scholar and Harvard-educated lawyer is a Black Democrat representing an overwhelmingly white district in Upstate New York that voted for President Donald Trump in 2016. His bread-and-butter issues typically pertain to farmers, small business, and rural communities in his district.
