The latest New York Times/Siena College poll reveals troubling signs for Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic presidential nominee, in New York City. Harris leads former President Donald Trump by 66% to 27%, marking the worst performance for a Democratic candidate in the city since 1988. In comparison, President Joe Biden won New York City with 76% of the vote in 2020. The poll indicates a significant shift to the right, with a 14-point swing from the previous election. Nate Cohn noted, 'If it held, it would represent the worst showing for a Democratic presidential candidate in the city since 1988.' The poll was conducted from October 20 to October 23 among likely voters.
