Timeline

1968

Daniel Benjamin Maffei (born July 4, 1968) is an American politician and professor who was the United States representative for New York's 24th congressional district from 2013 to 2015.

1981

He became the first Democrat to represent the area since 1981 (when it was the 32nd District), and only the second Democrat to represent the Syracuse area in Congress since 1917.

1986

He graduated from Nottingham Senior High School in 1986, and continued on to receive a B.A. in history from Brown University in 1990, an M.S. in journalism from the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism in 1991, and an M.P.P. from the John F. Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University in 1995.

1988

Even though Republicans have a small plurality of registered voters, it hadn't supported a Republican for president since George H. W. Bush carried it in 1988.

1991

Upon graduating from Columbia, Maffei went to work as a reporter and producer for Syracuse's ABC affiliate WSYR-TV from 1991 to 1993, and part-time reporter for WWNY-TV in Watertown from then until 1995.

Maffei was the senior vice president for corporate development at consulting firm Pinnacle Capital Management.

1996

Dan's career on Capitol Hill started with an unpaid internship in 1996 with New York Congressman Eliot Engel.

He was hired as a press secretary for U.S. Senator Bill Bradley in 1996, then served in the same post for Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan from 1997 to 1998.

1998

After working on Senator Bradley's presidential campaign from 1998 to 1999, Maffei went to work for U.S. Representative Charlie Rangel from 1999 to 2005, serving as a senior staff member of the House Ways and Means Committee.

2005

In 2005, Maffei returned to Syracuse to coordinate the successful 2005 re-election campaign of Syracuse Mayor Matt Driscoll.

Following his successful return, Maffei decided to make his first bid for public office, challenging popular nine-term Republican Congressman Jim Walsh.

He earned the Democratic nomination and mounted the first serious challenge to Walsh in years, coming within two percentage points of defeating the incumbent.

Maffei won in the City of Syracuse and the rest of Onondaga County, Walsh's home turf, as well as Monroe County.

2006

Although Walsh had held the seat without serious difficulty until his near-defeat in 2006, the 25th had swung heavily to the Democrats at most other levels since the 1990s.

2008

On January 24, 2008, after Maffei had already mounted a strong opposition campaign, Walsh announced that he would not be running for an 11th term.

In March 2008, Mayor Driscoll announced he would not be running for the seat, effectively handing the nomination to Maffei.

He ran unopposed in the Democratic primary on September 9, 2008.

After it appeared he might run unopposed in the general election, on April 3, 2008, Onondaga County legislator Dale Sweetland, coming off a narrowly unsuccessful 2007 bid for Onondaga County Executive, announced that he would oppose Maffei.

Maffei was solidly favored to win the seat.

In addition to rating the district as 'Leans Democratic',

RealClearPolitics ranked this as the third most likely Congressional district to switch parties.

Going into the election, other pundits from CQ Politics, The Cook Report, and the Rothenberg Report also ranked it as 'Lean Democrat' to 'Democrat Favored'.

In May 2008, and again on June 20, 2008, The Washington Post's Chris Cillizza, author of "The Fix", ranked the race in the 25th as a near-certainty to result in a Democratic takeover.

On November 4, 2008, Maffei defeated Sweetland, 55% to 42%.

2009

Maffei previously represented the district, then numbered as New York's 25th congressional district, from 2009 to 2011.

He has also worked as a senior adviser at law firm Manatt, Phelps & Phillips.

2010

Republican Ann Marie Buerkle narrowly defeated Maffei on November 2, 2010 following weeks of absentee ballot counting and precinct recanvassing, in which Buerkle emerged with a 567-vote majority of over 200,000 ballots cast.

Maffei conceded the race on November 23, 2010, when it became clear that challenged votes would not change the outcome of the race.

Maffei had been favored to hold the seat.

RealClearPolitics rated the district as 'Leans Democratic,' and other pundits from CQ Politics, The Cook Report, and the Rothenberg Report ranked it as 'Lean Democrat' to 'Democrat Favored'.

2011

On August 24, 2011, Maffei announced his intentions to take back his old seat, now renumbered as New York's 24th congressional district.

2012

On November 6, 2012, Maffei defeated incumbent 25th district Republican Ann Marie Buerkle in the race for the redistricted 24th, avenging his 2010 loss.

Maffei defeated Buerkle on November 6, 2012, 48% to 44% with 99% of precincts reporting.

Despite the race being called in Maffei's favor before midnight on Election Day, Buerkle released a statement the following morning, November 7, saying she would not concede until all ballots were counted.

Buerkle conceded the race on November 9, 2012.

2014

Maffei lost his 2014 reelection campaign to Republican nominee John Katko.

Maffei ran for a third, non-consecutive term in 2014.

2016

He served as Commissioner of the Federal Maritime Commission from 2016 to 2018 and was re-appointed in November 2018 to a term ending in 2022.

During the four month lapse in his Maritime Commissioner post, Maffei was a professor of practice at George Washington University.

Maffei was born in Syracuse and currently resides there.
