A new Democrat wants to unseat a three-term incumbent in New York’s 25th Congressional District, according to Finger Lakes Daily News. Robin Wilt has launched a primary challenge against U.S. Rep. Joe Morelle in the 2026 race.
Wilt served eight years on the Brighton Town Board and built a profile through local organizing. The district covers all of Monroe County and parts of Ontario County, including Bloomfield, East Bloomfield, and Victor.
She won’t run alone. Sherita Traywick, founder of Young & Gifted Ministries, also seeks the Democratic nomination, setting up a competitive primary in NY-25.
