Midterm battleground... New York?

Perhaps one of the biggest signs that Democrats are in trouble in the 2022 midterms is that New York is emerging as a battleground state for several races. Of New York’s 26 seats, 9 are competitive. More from DNYUZ:

“For Democrats, the uncertainty is particularly jarring: Just 10 months ago, party leaders, who controlled the once-in-a-decade redistricting process in the state, optimistically predicted that new district lines could safeguard Democrats and imperil as many as five Republican seats, allowing them to add key blocks to their national firewall.

That, to put it gently, is not how things seem to be turning out.

Now, even Representative Sean Patrick Maloney, who once hoped New York would ease his burden as chairman of House Democrats’ campaign arm, is facing a viable challenge, with internal polls from both parties showing a dead heat in a suburban area President Biden won by 10 points.”
