Angus Reid Public Opinion
October 7, 2010

Voters in the Empire State appear ready to elect Andrew Cuomo as their new governor and hand Charles Schumer a new term in the U.S. Senate, a new Angus Reid Public Opinion poll has found. In the online survey of a representative sample of 500 registered voters in New York, 63 per cent of decided voters and leaners would support Cuomo of the Democratic Party on election day. Republican candidate Carl Paladino is a distant second with 32 per cent, followed by Howie Hawkins of the Green Party with two per cent, and Warren Redlich of the Libertarian Party with one per cent.
