How upstate NY special House election could be midterm ‘bellwether’

Inflation or abortion?

That is the question facing Hudson Valley voters Tuesday.

Or, at least, those are the respective topics that Republican Marc Molinaro and Democrat Pat Ryan have emphasized ahead of a special House election that could give a clue to the national political mood with control of Congress on the ballot this fall.

“It is getting a lot of attention because it is a competitive race,” Lee Miringoff, director of the Marist Poll, explained to The Post Monday “It is a bellwether.”

Polling suggests a tight race between Molinaro and Ryan to fill the seat vacated by now-Lt. Gov. Antonio Delgado through the end of the year.
