Trump for NY Poll Shows A Much Closer Race In NY

From the Morning Memo:

The Trump for New York team has been critical of public polls showing Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton with an overwhelming lead in the Empire State, insisting her GOP opponent, Donald Trump, is actually running a lot more competitively in the candidates’ shared home state than the conventional wisdom allows.

And now it believes it has some evidence to back up its claims.

The state campaign effort commissioned its own poll conducted by McLaughlin and Associates, a national research firm with a New York office in Blauvelt. According to that poll, 49 percent of voters said they are likely to vote for Clinton, while 38 percent said they’re with Trump.

While these numbers still represent a double digit margin for the Democratic nominee, it’s a far cry from the projected 24 point lead in the most recent Siena Poll conducted Oct. 19th.
