Poll: Cuomo Over Paterson
If New York's gubernatorial primary election were being held today – David Paterson would be packing his bags.
The latest voter survey from Quinnipiac University's polling institute says Paterson trails Attorney General Andrew Cuomo by by two-to-one in a hypothetical 2010 Democratic primary match-up.
Cuomo has not said he is interested in running for governor next year, though many Democrats believe he is positioning himself to make a run possible.
Quinnipiac polling spokesman Maurice Carroll blamed part of Paterson's problem with voters on fallout from the recent debacle over the selection of a new senator to replace Hillary Clinton.
Voters disapproved of the way Paterson handled the appointment process by a margin of 52 percent to 35 percent
