Larry Sharpe earns NY Libertarian Party nomination, announces 2018 running mate Andrew Hollister as his running mate once again. Sharpe was also endorsed by Andrew Yang, and will be earning the Forward Party's line in the general election as well, if the party qualifies. Sharpe also has potential support of the Upstate Jobs Party and Unite NY as well - meaning Sharpe could hypothetically appear on as many as 4+ party lines.

I get DA/criminal justice background vibes from the last sentence, but we'll see at 11.

Zeldin selects Alison Esposito, a NYPD precinct commander.

Pretty interesting pick. All I can find about her is an article about her working with a charity.
