How is Hochul running slightly ahead of Cuomo? Serious question.

Hochul is stronger in upstate NY. It'd actually be pretty surprising if Cuomo ended up doing better than her.

Cuomo is also starting from a slightly lower base with 3 candidates in the race instead of 2. 

But the real answer is Erie County, where Hochul is from, reported early and broke heavily for Hochul.  She's not doing as well relative to Wu downstate.  She'll probably end up below Cuomo when all is in.

Cuomo wins NY-DEM Gov, 61-35 over Teachout at 40.8% in!
Hochul wins NY-DEM Lt. Gov, 61-39 over Wu at 40.5% in!

I should note this:

Tompkins County, which some predicted would be Teachout's best county, has not yet reported.....

NH-01: Guinta leading Innis 49-41 at 61.9% in
MA-06: Moulton leading Tierney 51-39 at 67.5% in
MA-09: Chapman leading Alliegro 33-32 at 86.9% in
MA DEM Gov: Coakley leading Grossman 42-37 at 82% in


MA DEM Lt. Gov goes for Kerrigan 51-29 over Cheung at 82% in!

[Attorney General, Senator-Elect, & Former PPT Dwarven Dragon]

And Coakley wins the MA DEM Gov nomination, 42-37 over Grossman at 82.6% in!
MA-06 goes for Moulton, 51-40 over Tierney at 73.6% in!
NH-01 goes for Guinta, 49-41 over Innis at 62.8% in!

FiveThirtyEight: So, if Cuomo doesn’t get out of the low 70s Tuesday, it’ll be a bearish sign for his prospects with Democratic voters in crucial presidential primary states such as Iowa and New Hampshire. If — even with the power of incumbency and a marquee name in the state — Cuomo has a tough time persuading the vast majority of Democrats to back him, then he’ll probably have a tougher time wooing voters in states where he doesn’t have those advantages.

Cuomo is barely staying above 60%.....


MA-09: 95.9% in, Chapman leading Alliegro 33-31

[Attorney General, Senator-Elect, & Former PPT Dwarven Dragon]

MA-09: 97.7% in, Chapman leading Alliegro 33-31

Just 5 more precincts to go, and then the general election campaign will officially begin nationwide.

BTW, PPP was the only pollster to get the Moulton-win in MA-06 right.

[SPQR]

LOL@Scott Brown winning 50%.

[Attorney General, Senator-Elect, & Former PPT Dwarven Dragon]

LOL@Scott Brown winning 50%.

He's actually a bit under 50% now. Still some votes to count.


MA-09: 99.5% in, Chapman leading Alliegro 32-31

[Attorney General, Senator-Elect, & Former PPT Dwarven Dragon]

And MA-09 goes for Chapman, 32-31 over Alliegro!

That concludes the primary season of 2014.

Now comes the long wait for November 4th.
