It included hundreds of New Yorkers looking to expand the party’s influence in the Empire State. So could Donald Trump win New York? NY1 investigative reporter Courtney Gross, political reporter Bobby Cuza and New York political director Bob Hardt discuss if there’s Republican momentum in the state, and the appearances of New York GOP members like Lee Zeldin and Elise Stefanik at the convention.
