NY: AG Leads Governor by 59 in new Poll November 17, 2009
Posted by rslcpol in : Attorney General News , trackbackFrom the New York Post:
Attorney General Andrew Cuomo has opened a staggering 59-point lead over Gov. Paterson after the embattled governor spent more than $500,000 on TV ads aimed at bolstering his image, according to a new poll.
Cuomo extended his already massive lead over Paterson in a potential primary next year for the state’s top job. The poll found Cuomo would beat his fellow Democrat 75-16 in a hypothetical 2010 matchup, according to the statewide Siena Research Institute.
That 59-point spread is up nine points from a similar poll last month.
In fact, Paterson now trails all potential major party candidates for governor after former Long Island Congressman Rick Lazio, a Republican, gained five points to lead Paterson 42-39 in a head-to-head contest.
