  1. last night, the past few years I have been a roadsing warrior for Gillibrand and Murphy. I big part of my “mission” was to make sure my neighbor, ex-Congressman John Sweeney, had to look at plenty of signs whichever way he drove from his house. Of course with his license suspended I may have to rethink this.

    Nah!

  2. the New York House delegation…I almost want to lose one (Besides NY-29) to shore up other borderline upstate districts.

    Regarding Murphy: I am happy he’s winning. He’s only 40, so maybe in 40 more years, he’ll be the Louise Slaughter on upstate NY.  

  3. And nice to see NY Dems looking so great! Sure, Hall & Owens have more work to do, but hopefully they’re up to the task.

    It’d be a real shame to lose NY-20, but I guess Murphy really is ready to continue where Gillibrand left off. (Oh, and hers, Schumer’s, and Cuomo’s coattails will hopefully also be of help.)

  4. I really believe if the NY GOP went with John Faso instead of Tedisco in the Special election Faso would have won.

    How the NY GOP didnt go all out to recruit Faso to run is beyond me.

    This was the best and probably last shot the GOP had to win this seat.

    My guess if Murphy win re-electio and Hall loses in NY-19 you’ll see NY-20 and NY-19 swap Republicans for Democrats in redistricting.

  5. He’s in good shape or at least is in good shape in this poll but it all comes down to turnout and people showing up despite a so far non-competitive Senate and Governor’s race.

  6. Murphy is over 50, leads by a decent amount and the poll was conducted by a independent and credible source so you don’t have to take the poll with a grain of salt like you have to do with internal. I wasn’t worried about Scott Murphy’s chsnces but i’m glad Siena conducted a poll to show where there race is going with less than 50 days away. Now if they can poll NY-23 that would be great.
