Anyone know anything about NY1?
Tim Bishop - D, incumbent, great guy vs. Randy Altschuler, Offshore outsourcing businessman? I don't see it on RCP as a competitive race, but I've read that it's neck and neck. Altschuler has been smearing Bishop with horrible ads and Newsday endorsed him, for no particular reason that I could see. They actually said nicer things about Bishop. Anyway, he's not my congressman. I got redistricted and now have Peter King, but he votes great and I was wondering if anyone had any information about the state of that race?
