Neither major party candidate for governor in New York has yet agreed to debate terms, there’s just been debate over the debates. Long Island GOP congressman Lee Zeldin reportedly wanted several debates in various locations around the state. Governor Kathy Hochul said she’d debate Zeldin on NY1 TV on October 25th, but Zeldin rejected that idea. Rockland state senator, Democrat Elijah Reichlin-Melnick, says Zeldin’s moves are a tried-and-true strategy…
Rockland assemblyman, Republican Mike Lawler, says ultimately, it’s the voters who end up with less information…
Most polls have the governor leading Zeldin by double digits. Election Day is Tuesday, November 8th. In addition to the governor, U.S. Senate, and other state-wide races, there are contested races locally for Congress, state Senate districts 38 and 40; Assembly districts 96, 97, 98 and 99; Ramapo Town Justice, Stony Point Town Council and Superintendent of Highways, Trustees in the villages of Haverstraw, Nyack, Piermont, Sloatsburg and Suffern, and Justice for the village of Suffern.
