I haven't really been following this race.  What ballot lines are each candidate running on?

Has Davis indicated who he'll caucus with if elected?

I'm pretty sure he said he'd caucus with the Republicans.

Jack Davis is on his own specially-made "Tea Party" ticket.

It was a stupid question.  Sorry.

Edit:  Though it does make this an odd statement:

That comparison really can't be applied to NY-26 because Davis takes away votes nearly equally from Corwin and Hochul. There was a clear split field between Case and Hanabusa where both candidates split the Democratic vote nearly equally. Notice that Hochul has better favorable ratings than Corwin and that voters only barely prefer a Republican over a Democrat, I think Hochul would be leading Corwin even with Davis out of the trace.

If anything, if Davis voters were forced to pick between Corwin and Hochul, I'd expect them to chose Hochul by a decent margin.

If this really turns out to have been the way it looks in this short video, this could be Jack Davis' 'macaca moment'.

Gotta love the comically melodramatic reaction from the obnoxious cameraman.
