Hochul treated this race as if she had it in the bag.I hope that doesn't cost her and us.

It's a huge part of it. I'm from the finger lakes and there is a lot of bitching about a woman coming for your guns. Also, the stunt that Zeldin pulled up here with getting his buddy to not prosecute the guy that attacked him to prove that we're too soft on crime sadly worked.

It wasn't staged. The lack of prosecution on her end to fit his narrative of violent offenders being released through bail reform was. He was prosecuted anyway by the feds because you can't attack a candidate.

Hochul’s lead went from 17%, which was never going to happen, to 12%, which is still comfortable. NYT’s story is another of the 23 gazillion “Dems fiddin to lose” stories appearing everywhere.

Oh please. People who "have to let me know" they blocked me are dumb. They think I care.

Women are invigorated by the abortion issue and will be voting in larger numbers. We already know women are registering in greater numbers than men. These women need to lean on their men and get them to vote democratic.

Don't worry about Clutch Cargo. He has no evidence to back up his claim.

Zeldin's campaign is concentrating on inflation. Exactly what will the governor of New York do to control inflation? How much power will the governor have over the global inflation problem?

Hillary was not predicted to win by a landslide. Not close to a landslide. The 538 odds were 71.4% for Hillary and 28.6% for DUMP45.

That is not a landslide. That is approximately 2 in 3 Hillary and 1 in 3 Trump.

If anybody thinks that is a landslide, I challenge them to book 3 flights on an airline that crashes 1 out 3 flights.

The fact that people took that as a landslide and that Hillary was going win anyway so they could stay home, sit on their butts, and not vote is a very sad statement on the population of this country.

This. You can't sell papers with "Democrats expected to win in blue states, Republicans expected to win in red states"
