The New York gubernatorial race continues to tighten between Governor Kathy Hochul (D-NY) and Rep. Lee Zeldin (R-NY), new polling shows.

Hochul, who took over as governor when disgraced Democrat Andrew Cuomo resigned in August 2021, has recently seen her lead shrink from the 17-point lead she obtained just last month.

A Quinnipiac University poll released Tuesday showed Hochul leading her Republican challenger by a mere 4%.

“In the blue state of New York, the race for governor is competitive,” Quinnipiac University polling analyst Mary Snow said. “Democrats have cruised to victory in gubernatorial races since 2006, but Governor Hochul’s narrow edge puts Republican Lee Zeldin well within striking distance of her.”

Even more shocking, the Democrat is leading New York City by 22%, with Zeldin earning an estimated 37% of likely NYC voters — an extremely big grab for a Republican in the deep-blue city.
