"Two private polls conducted in a swing New York House district and reviewed by POLITICO — one in September and another in March — found former President Donald Trump leading Biden there by 1 point, a virtual tie. And public polls over the last four months found Biden’s lead had winnowed to just 8 points across New York — an unusually narrow gap in a state where Democrats outnumber Republicans 2 to 1.

“We’re still acting like this is a one-party state, which for pretty much 20, 25 years it has been,” Democratic Manhattan Borough President Mark Levine said. “I truly believe we’re a battleground state now.”

A Biden lead of 8 points in a state he carried by 23 in 2020 is a huge loss of support.

    OMG, you’re making this more difficult than it needs to be.

    Ok…coalesce around a new candidate. Find someone fucking else. There’s still time and France just proved it. How can you say it’s too late?

      Because any new candidate has 118 days to rise to prominenance and win the election, that’s not enough time.

        118 days

        Oddly specific number. Care to share the law in which this figure is stated?

            Plus one. Kind of a dumb and flippant comment, especially from a mod, but 🤷🏼‍♂️.
