| Description | An otherwise quiet Congressional election cycle in the Empire State has grown livelier in recent weeks as Rep. Felix Grucci (R) suddenly finds himself with a serious fight on his hands in the 1st district.
Redistricting essentially made every New York incumbent safer, and the dearth of vulnerable House Members there and in the nation as a whole has brought that much more attention on the tightening race between the freshman Grucci and former Southampton College Provost Tim Bishop (D).
While Grucci retains the advantages of incumbency and a large war chest, a controversy over one of his ads and the swing nature of the district have combined in the waning days of the campaign to make the contest look like a tossup. |
