Labor Day political season is now upon us and we are a mere eight weeks away from the gubernatorial election in New York State. Many are starting to think that Republican challenger Lee Zeldin is in a decent position to make the race against incumbent Democrat, Kathy Hochul, a close one. NY1’s political reporters Zack Fink, Courtney Gross and Juan Manuel Benítez take a detailed look at the candidates’ campaign strategies thus far and give us their thoughts on how it may all play out in November.
