In the final weeks of the campaign, Gov. Kathy Hochul and her Republican opponent Rep. Lee Zeldin crisscrossed the state to rally voters in their push to win the governor's race.
If either candidate is going to win, they need their supporters in New York City to turn out.
In Hochul's case, a high number of Democratic votes in the city could help counterbalance Zeldin's strength in the suburbs, in upstate New York and on Long Island. For Zeldin, he estimated he needs at least 30% of the vote in the city to overcome Hochul's Democratic advantage.
Over the last week of the race, Hochul and Zeldin hit the NYC neighborhoods they each expect to draw significant support from.
For Hochul, that was time spent in downtown Manhattan and on the Upper West and Upper East Sides, as well as western Brooklyn and East New York.
Zeldin spent less time in the city, as he traveled upstate and to Long Island to encourage voter turnout there. But he did spend time in the Republican stronghold of Staten Island while continuing to appear at the scenes of crimes across the city. He also rallied with Orthodox Jews in Williamsburg and with Asian New Yorkers in Flushing.
