A shock new poll has revealed that Republican Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY) could be in with a chance of defeating Democrat incumbent Gov. Kathy Hochul in deep blue New York’s gubernatorial election.
In a hypothetical match-up, Stefanik and Hochul are neck-and-neck, the poll found.
The polling was revealed in a recent survey by data analytics firm co/efficient.
The results of the survey, obtained by the New York Post, show Stefanik, a close ally of President Donald Trump, as the strongest contender to unseat Hochul.
The independent poll revealed that Hochul, who is up for reelection next year, would have 43 percent of the vote.
Stefanik, meanwhile, is just a hair behind with 42 percent.
About 15 percent of New Yorkers are still undecided, the poll noted.
