2 Front Runners Emerge In Race To Represent UES In Congress, Poll Shows
"The new poll, published by Dream NYC on Wednesday, shows two candidates beginning to pull ahead of the pack: Upper East Side Assemblymember Alex Bores, who was endorsed by former Congresswoman Carolyn Maloney and Upper West Side Assemblymember Micah Lasher, who was endorsed by Nadler."
"In the most recent Dream NYC poll, which surveyed 605 likely Democratic voters in NY-12 between Feb. 26 and 27, 20 percent of responders said they'd vote for Bores, and 19 percent of responders said they'd vote for Lasher."
"One thing to know is that Dream NYC is a political action committee with a Washington D.C. address that is throwing its support behind Bores's campaign for Nadler's seat, namely for Bores's platform of AI regulation."
"However, with 30 percent of voters still undecided, and the primary election more than three months away, the race is still wide open."
The race to succeed longtime Democratic Rep. Jerry Nadler in New York's 12th congressional district is developing into an East Side versus West Side competition. A Dream NYC poll from late February shows Upper East Side Assemblymember Alex Bores narrowly leading with 20 percent support, followed closely by Upper West Side Assemblymember Micah Lasher at 19 percent. Kennedy scion Jack Schlossberg ranks third with 18 percent. Bores received endorsements from former Congresswoman Carolyn Maloney, while Lasher was endorsed by Nadler and Schlossberg by Nancy Pelosi. With 30 percent of voters undecided and the primary months away, the race remains highly competitive. The poll surveyed 605 likely Democratic voters in the district, which spans multiple Manhattan neighborhoods.
