Hochul's Lead Shrinks in NY Governor's Race | New York City News
Description
The New York governor’s race is heating up as Kathy Hochul’s once-steady lead over Bruce Blakeman has shrunk from 20 to just 10 points — a worrying sign for the incumbent, especially given her narrow 6-point win four years ago. Both campaigns are ramping up: Hochul’s team leans into law enforcement messaging with Mayor Mamdani backing her, while Blakeman tries to paint her as too progressive — even calling her “Comrade Kathy.” But his own campaign faces a tougher hurdle: President Trump’s upcoming visit could backfire in a state where he’s deeply unpopular. With national politics casting a long shadow, this race is shaping up to be one of the most unpredictable in the nation’s biggest state.
