Wow! A Siena College Research Institute poll released today shows New York Governor Kathy Hochul holding a 25-point lead over Trumpster Elise "Elsie" Stefanik for Hochul's potential re-election in 2026.
Governor Hochul's favorability ratings on providing decisive leadership are also up, from 36 percent to 48 percent. Meanwhile, Elsie's favorability rating hovers at a pathetic 21 percent. SAD!
Yes, it's one poll. But there are a few developments from this that we can reasonably expect.
1). Elsie spokesjerk Alex de Grasse (late of Baby Marco's 2016 Presidential campaign) will call this "a fake poll by a woke educational institution," whose budget and intellectual independence the Benedict Donald administration will try to decimate any moment now.
2). The chances of Elsie dropping out of the race for governor just went up a tick. In fact, if her internal polling is similar to this Siena result, she should reconsider her plans and let Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman or Congressman Mike Lawler get crushed instead.
Will Elsie ever come to terms with the fact that Trump has royally screwed her? Let's let this observer explain:
"Stefanik has been having an interesting but not really positive 2025 thus far. She was nominated by Donald Trump for the position of United States Ambassador to the United Nations. But then, fairly quickly, the nomination was withdrawn. The reason, the public was told, was the Republicans needed her for their razor-thin margin of control in the House of Representatives.
"That's strange. If she had been confirmed by the Senate in January like most other major appointees, the law on filling elective vacancies in New York would have had a special election concluded before a vote from her likely Republican replacement would have been needed for voting on Trump’s mega-MAGA legislation."
Poor Elise! How simply frightful! How humiliating! How delightful!
We cats PURR.
