The cynical theory behind congestion pricing suspension was that it would help swing seat Dems. What happened? Swing seat Rs took credit for pressuring Hochul, no voters moved toward her/Dems. A mess on policy *and* politics.
Just brutal numbers for Gov. Kathy Hochul in the new Siena NY poll, out today.
34% favorable/54% unfavorable — a 20-point gap, worse than Trump’s 18-point gap.
