POLL: Hochul leading Stefanik by 20 points in NY governor race.

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) is besting Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.) by 20 points in the Empire State governor’s race, according to a Tuesday poll.

The survey released by the Siena Research Institute shows the incumbent Democrat with a healthy lead to retain her role almost a year ahead of the election.

Fifty-two percent of registered voters said they would vote for Hochul if the general election were the day respondents were asked, compared to 32 percent of voters who said they’d support Stefanik. The incumbent’s polling lead was 52 percent to 27 percent in September, Siena notes.

Of course it also shows how quickly she was wiling to toss her beliefs to latch onto Trump. Shows she was not so bright afterall.

@beckyromero Well… he‘s now the dominant figure of her party…

Hochhul’s not exactly a Madam Curie 🤣 @beckyromero

@CedricH Not just now, but for the last decade.

To you and Mamdani sure @MarkPaul

MarkPaul · 26-30, M

@jackjjackson Yeah, and Mamdani won his election.

Doesn’t mean he isn’t dim. @MarkPaul

@jackjjackson It does mean Stefanik doesn't have a chance. She will be a 2-time loser. This time for her own mental wellbeing, hopefully she won't start measuring the windows for new curtains in the government provided housing for the position she craves.

There is a year to the election and Siena calling a bunch of Mamdani fans does not a real poll make. @MarkPaul

MarkPaul · 26-30, M

@jackjjackson There is a year until the election and Elise Stefanik is only going to lean MORE into that fat slob and pedophile defender, Cry-Baby-trump as his influence continues to wane. It's not the Stefanik doesn't have the capability to be a "good" politician." She's too much of an opportunist who took a short-cut to the wrong opportunity. Now, she has to live by the legacy she chose for herself. She doesn't have the cards; she gave them up.

I see. Your prediction is based on your Trump hate instead of reality. I plan to not think about it until Oct 1, 2026. I don’t live in NY or NYC anyways. Next year we will see the benefits of the President’s economic policies and the devastation of NYC which will only help Ms Stefanie. When I check in on that Oct 1, 2026 I will see. @MarkPaul

@jackjjackson I don't hate him. It's base on his failing performance. Day-1 is long past. He has failed based on his own promises, standards, and piggy behaviour. But, you keep making excuses for him as he destroys the economy of the USA with his on-again/off-again (in secret) tariffs, his government takeover of free enterprise companies, and his repeated attempts to give the USA military illegal orders.

See you on 1 October 2026... at 9:01 am sharp.
