The 4th Congressional District, currently represented by Congresswoman Carolyn McCarthy, will be holding an election for this House of Representatives seat on Nov. 3, and on Sept. 15 the Republican Party will hold its primary to determine who the voters wish to run against the Democratic incumbent. Patricia M. Maher, a resident of East Meadow has obtained 1,824 signatures from Republican citizens in the 4th Congressional District, enabling her to run in the primary against New York State Assemblyman Greg Becker, who has been endorsed by the Nassau County Republican Party, the Conservative Party, and the Right to Life Party.
