This doesn’t exactly check out if you look at Schumer’s percentages. He won by a much larger margin then Hochul did. This is trademark ticket splitting where it appears there were a good amount of Schumer-Zeldin voters. We’ll have to wait for exit polls for a better reason why this occurred, but I’d bet the rhetoric on crime played a big factor.
