The special election for Rafael Espinal’s seat on the New York City Council will not be happening after all, according to an order Governor Cuomo quietly put out at 11 p.m. on a Saturday night. According to the order, the Democratic primary for that seat will still go on, but its winner won’t take office until November and only one candidate is currently allowed to run.
