Nadler has served in the 10th congressional district since 2013 but has been a member of Congress since 1992. Maloney has served in the 12th district since 2013 but has served in Congress since 1993.
They face lawyer Suraj Patel who is hoping to earn a seat for the first time.
Meanwhile, there is a crowded race in the redrawn 10th Congressional district, where there is no incumbent.
