How Cuomo can lose

Liz Benjamin inadvertently shows how Gov. Cuomo can lose in November:

“… Roughly speaking, here’s how the vote is likely to break down in November: Upstate will count for from 45 percent to half of the vote on Election Day, while downstate (in this case, for argument’s sake, everything south of Orange County) will make up the other half.  The suburbs north of New York City will be very much in play if, as it appears will be the case, Westchester County Executive Rob Astorino is the Republican candidate for governor.  Cuomo will get a cushion out of New York City, carry Albany and Buffalo, put in a strong enough—if not overwhelming—performance everywhere else, and win easily …”

Here is an alternative theory:  Cuomo already lost the 45-50% of the upstate vote.  He loses Westchester, Rockland and Nassau, all of which went GOP last year, and there is low turnout in NYC.  That adds up to Cuomo losing this fall.

  1. Let’s get out and vote. Register and get the guys at your club to register. All gun clubs need to be open and be voter centers on election day!

  2. The left does not have a cause to rally around yet. If Coumo picks the right cause to champion a few months before the election they will win. Otherwise the second amendment champion will eke out a win. It’s that close, we must do as John Osadnick says or we will lose.

  3. I crunched the numbers before. Assuming people vote along party lines, we need at least 50% of registered Republicans to vote – and every Republican who does vote to vote for the GOP candidate. Need at least 2/3rd of the undecided voters to vote for the GOP candidate as well – and this is where the GOP candidate needs to campaign the hardest. This also assumes a 25-30% voter turnout for democrats voting for the Fuhrer.

    Without the support from the undecideds, and unless gun owners and Republican / Conservative voters get out the vote – we’re screwed.

  4. Not can but will LOSE, if, we can get the gun owners in the state to get out and vote. 6 to 8 million gun owner votes would be hard to beat. Remember in November. FUAC.

  5. I see that king cuomo is grasping at straws by lowering property taxes in the hopes that the voters of this state will forget his illegal gun law. Well guess what Andy, I pray you find yourself soon unemployed in New York State!

  6. Come on ladies and gentlemen…let’s get everyone we know in our circles to get out and vote in order to defeat this dictator!!!

  7. I don’t know about carrying Buffalo. Seems to me there are alot of anti-safe act prople in this part of NY, including a Sheriff who will not enforce the law and is very vocal about it.
    I predict Cuomo will not fare well in Buffalo and not get the projected cushion stated…

  8. No worry. Im going to trust in all the gun owners told to get out of NYS will be voting in massive numbers. Bye Bye Cuomo, your goin’ down just like yer daddy did back in ’93. Biatch.

  9. Cuomo will not win Buffalo. He pissed off to many gun owners & hunters like me. The only way he has a chance is to admit the safe act was poor legislation & repeal it immediately!

  10. Its all up to the gun owner. Theres as many gun owners in NY as voted in the last election, 4.5 million gun owners, 4.5 voted out of 12 million registered. cuomo was elected with 2.9 million votes. If just HALF the states gun owners vote the gun issue we can put anyone in there we want. If we cant we are truly in a sad state of affairs.

  11. There are 8 million gun owners in NY state. Forget parties and unite the gun owners, then vote ’em all out! All of those who voted for the SAFE Act and refuse to repeal it.

  12. Its all up to the gun owner. Theres as many gun owners in NY as voted in the last election, 4.5 million gun owners, 4.5 voted out of 12 million registered. cuomo was elected with 2.9 million votes. If just HALF the states gun owners vote the gun issue we can put anyone in there we want. If we cant we are truly in a sad state of affairs.

  13. Rick, Not sure where you got the 8 million figure from but sounds good. Id like to known your source. If your number is anywhere close cuomo should be gone for sure.

  14. If you do not vote him out ,along with the traitors that voted for the safe act…then you will be required to use your God given right of self preservation….imho

  15. Heck I’m not even a gun owner and I say this goof has got to go…this guy been riding his old mans coat tails his whole life…sneaky guy for sure…

  16. Kid Cuomo will be defeated. He and the other political hacks who defecate on the Second Amendment will be voted out of office.
