Hochul Holds Lead as Race Tightens | Montpelier News
Description
New York’s governor’s race is tightening as a new Siena poll shows Kathy Hochul up 10 points over Bruce Blakeman—49% to 39%—a closer margin than her earlier 20-point lead. History suggests this isn’t a lock: in 2022, Hochul led by 14 but won by just 6. While Democrats stay loyal to Hochul and Republicans rally behind Blakeman, independents lean slightly toward the GOP challenger. Hochul dominates in NYC, while Blakeman gains ground in suburbs and the upstate vote is nearly even. On key issues, voters favor Hochul on housing and energy, but split on safety and immigration. Elsewhere, Democratic incumbents Letitia James and Tom DiNapoli are cruising to reelection with strong leads.
