I keep harping on this because the media refuses to acknowledge it: Democrats do not like Governor Cuomo.
“A day after Albany leaders announced a budget deal, State Senator Simcha Felder, a Democrat, issued a blistering attack on Governor Cuomo and Speaker Shelly Silver for killing the ‘Education Initiative Tax Credit’ bill sponsored by Brooklyn Senators Marty Golden and Felder … As a result of his outrage, Felder is considering to not endorse Governor Cuomo in his reelection bid this fall. Felder is so furious at the Governor for killing his signature bill that he’s considering to endorse Republican gubernatorial candidate Rob Astorino for governor …”
“… Cuomo’s disposable ethics is a reason a new Siena College poll shows support slid-sliding away. He still holds a 61-21 percent lead over Westchester County Executive Rob Astorino, the presumptive Republican nominee. At the same time, his favorable job rating has slipped to 46 percent — and the percent backing Cuomo v. “someone else” to only 49, the lowest of his term. Imagine. In New York, where Democrats hold a 2-1 registration edge, only a minority of voters prefers Cuomo’s re-election …”
Keep in mind Siena is notoriously biased to the left. He’s probably 5-7 points lower than what their polls show.
I will vote out any Re-pubic-an that supports Cuomo.
Have we determined who actually does like Cuomo?
I will not vote for any politician who supports Cuomo or his policy on Safe Act or free college education for prisoners…
So the GOP will lose their majority in the NYS Senate? Yeah, because Democrats did such a good job when they had it….and you think your second amendment rights are threatened now. Have to settle for the lesser of two evils…
Sorry John Sweeney, but I do not vote for party… I vote for the person who promises to support my views.
It’s all about the 2nd amendment for me. But, the trifecta ie- common core gone, safe act repealed, fracking allowed, All Astorino come November- no-brainer
I think that trying to fix new york is like trying to fix an early 70s unibody car thats been driven in every road salt-covered winter since it was new…almost impossible
Well Bill…with that line of thinking enjoy your seven shot mags and registering your AR15s with the state police.
Bruce…Astorino has a better chance of catching polio than defeated Cuomo in November. Best option? Pack up and leave NYS!
Cumos mother doesnt like him
Jacob…is this a view of things to come?
I find it hard to believe that his own party will turn on him when they have elections as well, I mean Mike Giranas loves him. Its not wise for them to start eating each other during a very crucial election time. After all with all these demorats getting in trouble with the law these day, you would think they would become more of a cohesive unit. Seems things are crumbling at the seams, I wonder how Giranas is taking this, since he keeps chirping that the people want a democrat majority.
I will vote for the person who desires to free NY from oppression!
