Sarah Rogerson

Sarah Rogerson is a Niskayuna resident, hockey mom, and public interest lawyer who is running to flip a key state Senate district blue this November. Raised in a family of nurses and highway workers who devoted their lives to serving their communities, Sarah has spent her career standing up for working families and taking on powerful interests. Now, she is running for the state Senate to put working people first and deliver the representation her community deserves.

Sarah shows up when it matters, and this year’s New York Senate elections are no exception. As a DLCC Target Race candidate, she is well-positioned to take on her Republican incumbent opponent and win—helping Democrats build a supermajority in the chamber.

In 2026, Democrats have a historic opportunity to secure a supermajority in the New York Senate, needing just one more seat this November to do so.

New York Democrats have used their strong majorities to enact life-saving gun safety laws, deliver tax relief for working families, and go on offense against Republican gerrymandering.

Restoring a Senate supermajority alongside the existing Assembly supermajority would bolster Democratic power in Albany and provide an additional layer of protection for New Yorkers against GOP extremism.

With only one seat standing between Democrats and a Senate supermajority, the stakes this November are exceptionally high. The outcome will help determine not only whether New York can defend the progress it has made, but also whether the state can continue leading the way in delivering for working people.
