Wouldn't be surprised if Chris Gibson (veteran, moderate, not running for re-election, represents a fairly cosmopolitan district, has openly criticized Trump and never officially endorsed) followed Hanna's lead on this before long.

Not sure whether any other NY Republicans would be interested, as Stefanik is probably the only one who represents a district where it would go over well, and she has already openly endorsed Trump for the sake of her party leadership ambitions.

Could she lose Averroes?
The Green Party candidate will pull 15%, the Democrat is an uncharismatic dud of a candidate who's attracting barely any attention, who's being run seemingly exclusively because he had a military background (he has never run for elected office before). Stefanik has all of the local business, media, political, and non-profit elites firmly in her corner as well. Sadly, not likely.

15% Surprise

Really???

Funiciello pulled >10% in NY-21 in 2014, one of the best performances of any third-party candidate for Congress. Stefanik could win the district with as little as 40% of the vote this year.

96k votes (53%) - Elise Stefanik (R)
59k votes (33%) - Aaron Woolf (D)
19k votes (11%) - Matt Funiciello (G)
  7k votes (4%) - Blank/Void/Scattering
