In this combination of two file photos, New York State Sen. Adriano Espaillat, D-Manhattan, left, and U.S. Rep. Charles Rangel, D-N.Y. are shown. Rangel narrowly defeated Espaillat by about 1,000 votes two years ago in a 13th Congressional District race that involved disputed election results and a lawsuit. Now, some onlookers are predicting that a rematch with Espaillat in the June 24, 2014 Democratic primary could be the “The Lion” of Harlem’s last roar.
