Have there been any polls for Max Rose (NY-11)?

I haven't seen any polls, but I've seen a ton of local ads for him and for his opponent, failed 2017 NYC mayoral candidate Nicole Malliotakis.

Rose's district is largely conservative, and he won in an upset in 2018. I'd love to see how the race is going. Any polling? Predictions?

with a slight GOP tilt.

Staten Island is a tough district. The only advantage we have is that Trump's handling of covid hasn't made him any friends in the entire NYC area.

My prediction is it depends on whether this district will be for Trump or Biden. If Biden wins, Rose wins. If Trump wins, Rose loses.

Rose's surprise win in 2018 was largely because of the blue wave/people voting against Trump. In 2016, Trump won this district.

6. Would you like to take this opportunity to defend Mayor de Blasio?

Maybe you could tell us why he's wrong?

But he's not the worst, Rudy was. Rose also isn't running against the Mayor. There was no need to bring it up.

9. DeBlasio is currently despised by moderates and conservatives, and quite a few Democrats

It costs Rose nothing to drag him, and everything to be associated with him.

Do what you gotta do.

10. De Blasio is not well liked in NYC and there are some reasons for that.

Rose is running in the most conservative part of NYC, kissing up to de Blasio would be a mistake for Rose.

turn. Hope he wins just to keep this seat, but I would not vote for him for a higher office in a Primary.

11. Rose will win if Biden wins, meaning strong Dem turnout

and independents and moderates swinging heavily to Dems.

de Blasio is not liked by anyone and it's a good strategy for Rose to hit him in a right leaning district.

Politics is not about feelings, it's about power, and every seat we have is one more seat for Pelosi.

Rose did vote to impeach the traitor - so he sticks with us when it counts.
