A few of the Trump supporters on here have claimed that he would have a chance in NY A new Sienna poll disputes that. Not surprisingly all GOP candidates are getting trounced in NY against either Clinton or Sanders, however Trump does the worst. Trails Clinton 57-32 (by 25 points) and Sanders 63-30 (33 points)
New York State is reliably Democratic, Trump isn't going to change even if he appeals to a loud minority of New Yorkers. Trump polls really well among downstate New York Republicans, though.

A downstate New York Republican should be listed as an endangered species.

6 months ago people said that Trump wouldn't stay in the election, wasn't real, would drop out, and Clinton had a 22 point lead over Trump. Now that lead has evaporated, she is being challenged by a socialist and Trump is still in the race.
The election is 8 months away. Get back to us then.

Trump does well with Republicans, he even leads the GOP Primary in NY. However, his #'s among everyone else is absolutely horrific. Across the board he has constantly polled worse than every other Republican in a General Election matchupagainst Hillary and Bernie. Some have come to the silly conclusion than Trump would somehow do well in NY,but guess what. He won't. His #'s here are absoutley HORRIFIC.
Hillary Clinton's numbers are "horrific" for this stage of the race and her momentum is in the wrong direction. This after having spent $60M.
So, your point?
Clinton #'s are nowhere even remotely close to Trump. This isn't about Clinton. This is about Trump with 25/71 favorable and performing the worst of any GOP candidate in a state where some people for whatever silly reason thought Trump would be competitive in.

Many NYC suburbs are only somewhat more Democrat than Republican — 55 to 45 or so. And there are plenty of Republican towns; I grew up on Long Island, my town went 60-70% for Romney last election. Excluding the city, downstate and upstate vote roughly the same on average. And Staten Island is among the Republican counties in the state.

The NYC suburbs tend to lean Ddemocratic. The last time Nassau, Westchester or Rockland went to the GOP President was 1988, Suffolk was 1992. There are areas of each that are Republica, but as awhole it certainly leans Democratic.
