Gov. Kathy Hochul said Wednesday that there is “zero” chance former President Donald Trump will become the first Republican presidential candidate to win New York in 40 years in the November general election.
The governor made the comments in response to US Rep. Elise Stefanik, a prominent Republican and Trump ally who represents parts of upstate New York. During the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee earlier this month, Stefanik predicted that Trump will be “the first Republican in a generation” to win the Empire State.
