NY-12: Lasher leads among older voters in new poll, but 1 in 5 remain undecided [View all]

Assembly Member Micah Lasher leads among older voters in the crowded Democratic primary for New York’s 12th Congressional District, while one-fifth of respondents were undecided in a new poll released by AARP New York on Thursday.

Lasher received 32% support among likely Democratic primary voters age 50 and older, followed by Assembly Member Alex Bores at 21%, attorney George Conway at 13%, and Kennedy scion Jack Schlossberg at 9%. Public health researcher Nina Schwalbe received 2%.

Another 21% said they did not know whom they would support, leaving a sizable share of one of the district’s most reliable voting blocs still up for grabs as candidates make their closing arguments.

The poll was conducted by the Siena College Research Institute from May 27 through June 1, and included only likely voters age 50 and older, rather than the full Democratic primary electorate.
