"New York Special Election: Democrats' Hope for Flipping George Santos' Former House Seat"

Polls show Democrat Tom Suozzi has a slight lead over Republican Mazi Pilip in the race to replace expelled Representative George Santos in New York's 3rd Congressional District, with Suozzi holding a four-point lead in a new Siena College poll. Despite Suozzi's popularity, voters in the district prefer former President Donald Trump over President Joe Biden. The issue of addressing the influx of migrants has emerged as a major voting concern, with nearly half of voters believing Pilip would do a better job on the migrant crisis. The survey also indicates that Suozzi is seen as likely to do a better job on protecting democracy and addressing the issue of abortion.
