Original Note:
The House Vacancy Clause of Article I of the US Constitution requires vacancies in the House to be filled by special election, not gubernatorial appointment. New York law provides for special elections for House vacancies arising prior to July 1 of an regular election year. https://constitutioncenter.org/the-constitution/articles/article-i https://codes.findlaw.com/ny/public-officers-law/pbo-sect-42/
