The Buffalo News delivers the bad news, “Supermajority in sight for State Senate Democrats as they dramatically outspend GOP“:
“… “We’re feeling very optimistic,” said Senate Deputy Majority Leader Michael Gianaris, a Queens Democrat who is also chairman of the Democratic Senate Campaign Committee. He cited everything from gun control to tenant protections as among the accomplishments of Democrats in their first two years in power …”
New: Updated NY campaign filings are in. Senate Dems have $2.7M for homestretch, having spent $3.8M since July. Senate GOP has $978K, having spent $442K since July. GOP also bolstered by $1.7M from indy group funded by Ron Lauder.

It’s probably going to happen.
At a minimum the Republicans will loose SD-46 and SD-56 which gives the Dems a supermajority of 42 seats. I see them losing SD-41 as well. Best chance for a GOP pickup is with Rob Astorino in SD-40.
What difference will this make?
You got that right!
