ALBANY – NYGOP Chair Ed Cox released the following statement in response to the latest Siena Poll, out this morning. The poll is the third in recent weeks to show President Trump within single digits of Joe Biden in New York State.
Additionally:
- Trump is up 13 in the suburbs, the crucial battleground area
- Republicans are up 4 in the generic congressional ballot in the suburbs
- Biden has a 70% unfavorability rating with independents and a 64% unfavorability rating in the suburbs
- Trump is up 17 with independents
- 49% of New Yorkers believe crime has gotten worse (only 17% say it has gotten better)
- 83% acknowledge that the migrant crisis is a serious problem
Statement from NYGOP Chair Ed Cox:
“This is the third poll that shows President Trump within striking distance of Joe Biden in New York State. Democrats are wholly responsible for inflation in food, energy and housing costs. They’ve enacted reckless, criminal-friendly crime laws and incentivized illegal immigration into our nation and state.
“The numbers are unmistakable: New Yorkers want a leader who can restore order, address economic challenges, and handle the migrant crisis effectively. President Trump and Republican candidates are ready to deliver the change that New Yorkers are demanding.”
