It’s uncertain whether there will even be a primary election for the Long Island swing seat or if party leaders will select the next nominees.

And it’s possible the district could be completely redrawn in 2024.

Santos insists he won’t resign, and McCarthy indicated earlier this week he’s in no rush to push the freshman lawmaker out of office. A resignation before the end of this year would result in a special election before candidates file petitions to get on the ballot for the June 2024 primary. Even if Santos doesn’t resign, Democratic officials plan to be more involved in the race than in the past. The partyto pursue opposition research that would have unraveled Santos’ fabricated campaign biography before he won the election.

One thing is certain with the 2024 race: There is no chance of a competitive general election in that district with Santos on the ballot. He’s highly unlikely to win a primary given united opposition of local Republican leaders worn weary by their colleague’s many scandals.
