NY-01: Zeldin, Goroff In Dead-Heat Congressional Race

SUFFOLK COUNTY, NY — With hours left until Election Day, incumbent Rep. Lee Zeldin, a Republican, and Democratic challenger Nancy Goroff are in a dead heat race to the finish line as they vie for the 1st Congressional District seat in one of the most heated races nationwide.

Polling indicates that in the final weeks before Election Day, the race between Zeldin and Goroff was almost a tie: Zeldin was preferred by 49 percent of respondents and Goroff by 48 percent, according to the most recent data reported by FiveThirtyEight.com.

The survey was done by the 314 Action Fund, which works to elect scientists, doctors and professionals. The poll results were based on a telephone survey of 402 likely November voters in the 1st District and conducted October 5 through 8, 2020. The data was subject to a margin of error of plus or minus 5 percentage points, according to GQRR.com.
