2010 election cycle
See also: United States House of Representatives elections in New York, 2010#District 19*John Hall faced no primary challenge. Nan Hayworth won the Republican primary.[1] Neil Di Carlo, a candidate backed by the Tea Party who lost the primary, refused to endorse Hayworth and suggested that his supporters "write in a candidate of your choice".[2]
The district was considered to be a toss-up race in the election.[3] Until 2006, the 19th Congressional District was considered a reliably Republican district and the National Republican Congressional Committee had mentioned that Hall's seat was one they hoped to take during the 2010 election cycle.[4] It has a Cook Partisan Voting Index of R+3,[5] although in more recent elections Democratic candidates had seen their rate of success increase. Polls from mid-October 2010 showed Republican Hayworth leading within the margin of error, and the race was considered to be a statistical dead heat. On November 2, 2010, Hayworth defeated Hall in the general election by a margin of 53% to 47%.
