Democratic incumbent Tom DiNapoli and Republican challenger Paul Rodríguez met on the debate stage in the race for New York State Comptroller. NY1’s Zack Fink, Courtney Gross and Juan Manuel Benítez shared their takeaways of the showdown, hosted by Spectrum News 1/NY1. Civil to a point, the two men had broadly different ideas about how the state’s finances should be overseen.
Meanwhile, the race for governor appears to be tightening. Can Lee Zeldin pull ahead and become the first Republican New York governor in 16 years?
A Quinnipiac University poll shows incumbent Gov. Kathy Hochul’s lead to be narrowing to only four points, as crime and inflation emerge as pressing issues for New York voters.
We want to hear from you, especially what you think about this week’s comptroller debate.
