New York Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) has chosen state Sen. Brian Benjamin (D) to be her lieutenant governor, the New York Times reports.
“The selection of Mr. Benjamin, who is Black, underscored Ms. Hochul’s attempt to diversify her ticket as she mounts her first campaign for governor next year, choosing a potential running mate who could help broaden her appeal in the voter-heavy New York City region.”
