Primarily, Cyn has big gap to close

This will be a hard bridge to close.

Siena College's latest Democratic poll shows Gov. Cuomo leading Cynthia Nixon by a whopping 41 points with the party primary days away.

The poll doesn't cover this past weekend when a series of self-inflicted screwups had the governor scrambling with damage control.

The governor's campaign took a huge hit over the botched opening of a new span of the Mario M. Cuomo Bridge due the fear that a shaky part of the old Tappan Zee Bridge would fall onto the causeway. The bridge is now set to open Tuesday.

Cuomo's and Nixon's campaigns also butted heads over the weekend after a mailer went out to Cuomo supporters claiming, “With anti-Semitism and bigotry on the rise, we can't take a chance with inexperienced Cynthia Nixon.”

Nixon is raising her children Jewish and attends synagogue herself. Cuomo claimed to know nothing about the literature — an idea Nixon called “patently absurd.”

Cuomo now leads by a 63% to 22% margin with voters casting their ballots Thursday.

Despite the wide margin, Nixon's convinced she can close the gap by Thursday.

“What I'm seeing is enormous excitement everywhere I go, not just in New York City but across the state,” she said when asked about the poll..”

The race for attorney general is much tighter with Sean Maloney leading Letitia James by a single point. The poll shows Maloney at 25%, James at 24% and Zephyr Teachout with 18% while Leecia Eve is a distant fourth with 3% of the vote.
