New York Governor Andrew Cuomo and U.S. Senator Kirsten Gillibrand are poised to win reelection next month, according to a new Quinnipiac University pollof likely voters released Thursday morning. The Democrats are holding substantial leads over their Republican opponents — Dutchess County Executive Marc Molinaro and Chele Farley, respectively. But as Quinnipiac polling analyst Mary Snow tells WAMC’s Ian Pickus, many voters are still making up their mind.

A lifelong resident of the Capital Region, Ian joined WAMC in late 2008 and became news director in 2013. He began working on Morning Edition and has produced The Capitol Connection, Congressional Corner, and several other WAMC programs. Ian can also be heard as the host of the WAMC News Podcast and on The Roundtable and various newscasts. Ian holds a BA in English and journalism and an MA in English, both from the University at Albany, where he has taught journalism since 2013.
