"Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY), the high-profile congresswoman who has established herself as one of President Donald Trump's most loyal allies in Washington over the last few years, would beat incumbent New York Governor Kathy Hochul (D) in a hypothetical matchup between the two women according to a shocking new poll. According to the survey from the conservative Manhattan Institute, Stefanik leads Hochul by one point (43%-42%) among registered voters."
"An internal poll released by a Stefanik-connected PAC earlier this month found that the congresswoman trailed Hochul by five points, 48%-43%. Notably, it also found that Stefanik actually prevailed, 46.4% to 45.9%, when respondents were informed that Hochul had endorsed Zohran Mamdani, the controversial favorite to win this year's New York City mayoral contest. Stefanik is widely expected to jump into the gubernatorial race, but has not formally begun her campaign."
"In a heavily Democrat leaning state, an independent poll that is heavily weighted towards registered Democrat voters shows Republican Elise Stefanik leading Democrat Governor Kathy Hochul in a head to head match up. This marks the first time in decades that any potential Republican gubernatorial candidate (and in this case, the likely nominee) is polling ahead of a Democrat incumbent Governor, even before any official announcement."
A Manhattan Institute survey found Rep. Elise Stefanik leading New York Governor Kathy Hochul 43% to 42% among registered voters and leading Lieutenant Governor Antonio Delgado 43% to 37%. An internal, Stefanik-connected PAC poll earlier showed Stefanik trailing Hochul 48% to 43% but indicated Stefanik narrowly ahead 46.4% to 45.9% when respondents were told Hochul had endorsed Zohran Mamdani. Stefanik is widely expected to enter the gubernatorial race but has not formally announced. Her campaign emphasized the independent poll results and criticized Hochul for endorsing Mamdani.
