According to a new Thursday poll, Gov. Kathy Hochul leads Republican rival Rep. Lee Zeldin of Suffolk County by just under two points, 44.5 percent to 42.6 percent.
Meanwhile, libertarian write-in candidate Larry Sharp trails with 3.3 percent support, with an additional 9.7 percent undecided in the poll of 1,087 likely voters.
