Survey: New York May Be Reddening, as Donald Trump Leads in Traditionally Blue District
Former President Donald Trump is leading President Joe Biden in a New York district that Biden carried in 2020, an internal survey from McLaughlin & Associates found.
The survey examined the race in New York’s Fourth Congressional District, which is a traditionally blue area. It found Long Island Republican Rep. Anthony D’Esposito leading Democrat challenger Laura Gillen 45 percent to 38 percent, and, nationally, it found Trump edging out Biden by seven percentage points — 51 percent to 44 percent — in that district.
