Paladino’s Support Collapses in New York
A new Quinnipiac poll in New York finds Andrew Cuomo (D) regaining a wide lead over Carl Paladino (R) in the race for governor among likely voters, 55% to 37%.
A similar poll two weeks ago had Cuomo ahead by just six points.
Said pollster Maurice Carroll: “Since Quinnipiac University’s last poll two weeks ago, it’s been a looney-tunes time for Paladino in the news media – one time in a face-to-face fight with a reporter – and it shows. Cuomo moves into a double-digit lead. After the dust settled from Paladino’s big primary win, the big switch was in the independent vote – a small edge for Paladino two weeks ago turns into a small edge for Cuomo this time.”
