Notes

  1. ^ a b c In 1992, Nadler was nominated by convention to replace Ted Weiss for the 8th district congressional election, who was posthumously nominated in the 8th district congressional Democratic primary the day after his death. Nadler was concurrently on the ballot for the 17th district congressional special election to fill the remainder of Weiss's term and the full term in the 8th district. Nadler also won the Democratic nomination for the 67th State Assembly district in the 1992 primary, but was replaced for the Democratic nomination when he ran to fill Weiss's seat.
