The incumbent in the new 2nd district is Democratic Rep. Brendan Boyle. He faces a primary challenge from Michele Lawrence, a former Wells Fargo area president and chief executive officer of MicheleSpeaks, a company that promotes wealth and wellness.

Republicans are challenging the new congressional map that was drawn by the Democratic-controlled state Supreme Court, so it’s possible this year’s elections could be held using the former boundary lines. ••
