From The Daily Signal, in a poll conducted by the Manhattan Institute between Oct. 22 and Oct. 26 found Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY) is leading incumbent Democrat New York Gov. Kathy Hochul. Gov. Hochul has endorsed socialist NYC mayoral Democrat candidate Zohran Mamdani over her former boss Andrew Cuomo that will likely tank her run no matter if the socialist wins or loses.
In a surprising showing, Rep. Elise Stefanik, R-N.Y., is leading incumbent Democrat New York Gov. Kathy Hochul in a recent independent poll pitting the two New Yorkers against one another in a hypothetical governor’s race.

o Stefanik garnering 43% support among a sample of registered voters from around New York state.
o Hochul polled 42%.
o The option of someone else garnered 9% in the poll, while “not sure” drew 7%.
