Race Summary
Democratic Governor Kathy Hochul survived a surprisingly competitive race against Republican Lee Zeldin. Hochul, who took office after Andrew Cuomo’s resignation, focused on abortion rights and public safety. Zeldin, a Trump-backed congressman, ran a tough-on-crime campaign that resonated in suburban areas but wasn’t enough to flip deep-blue New York. While Hochul won, Zeldin’s strong performance signaled potential Republican gains in future elections.
