Elizabeth Benjamin is blogging about the hand-wringing going on in the GOP about tomorrow’s 20th House district vote.
Republicans are privately lowering expectations and rather gloomily suggesting that this could be the beginning of the end for them in New York. Again.
The circular firing squad is lining up (if you can line up in a circle). Which is premature to be sure. the reason it could matter is that the Get Out The Vote effort will be key to this race.
If the Republican GOTV is depressed by, well, depression — Murphy gets a boost.
On the radio with Fred Dicker this morning, GOP consultant Roger Stone insisted Tedisco can “squeak this out,” but also suggested it won’t be his fault if he doesn’t.
One GOP source said internal polling showedTedisco down by two to three percentage points as of Friday, which is about what the last Siena NY poll found, too. That means this could still be anyone’s race.
