Overview
- Gov. Kathy Hochul joined Rep. Dan Goldman at a union rally in Lower Manhattan and praised his role in the first impeachment of President Donald Trump.
- A Schoen Cooperman Research poll for a Goldman-aligned super PAC found Brad Lander leading 47% to 42% among likely Democratic primary voters, which falls within the 4.5-point margin of error.
- The super PAC, New Yorkers Fighting Back, released the toplines while reporting about $10,500 raised to date, led by a contribution from hospital executive Lee Perlman.
- Goldman has put at least $1 million of his own money into the race, and his campaign is running sponsored search ads accusing Lander of ties to Palantir and ICE.
- Labor support is split, with District Council 37 and the Carpenters backing Goldman and the UAW regional chapter and PSC/CUNY backing Lander, reflecting the race’s centrist-versus-progressive divide.
