Ossé Drops Out of Jeffries Challenge, Clears Path for Incumbent
Update: 2025-12-05
Description
New York City Councilmember Chi Ossé, a member of the Democratic Socialists of America, has withdrawn his challenge to House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries for the Brooklyn-based Eighth District seat. Ossés decision comes after failing to receive the groups endorsement, which was seen as crucial for gaining left-leaning voter support. Despite initial plans to stay in the race, Ossés lack of official support and declining backing from prominent city leaders led to his withdrawal, clearing the path for Jeffries to secure another term without significant opposition.
