A district that went +20 for Trump now in play for Democrats
A new internal poll shows a Democratic House candidate in upstate New York is in a dead heat with a Republican challenger in a district President Trump won by 20 points in 2024. The Republican, Anthony Constantino, received Trump's endorsement and faced a contentious primary, while the Democratic candidate, Blake Gendebien, gained traction after messaging highlighted his opponent's unfavorability.
