For the Senate:

 NY 20

9/12 - Murphy +17

NY 24
The 24th Congressional District is in many ways the upstate New York counties that were left over after districts were created for Syracuse, Albany and the North Country. Its major population centers are small cities like Utica and Rome, and nearly half of the district’s population lives in rural areas.
For years the district sent Republicans to Congress, but in 2006 it broke with tradition. It elected Michael Arcuri, who had been the Oneida County district attorney for 14 years. Arcuri didn’t establish an immediate connection with his constituents, and even in the good Democratic year of 2008 he nearly lost to his GOP opponent, businessman Richard Hanna.
In 2008, Hanna is back for a rematch in a very different environment. Arcuri has been attempting to distance himself from national Democrats by voting against the second version of the health care bill, but it may be too late. Arcuri is most likely in for a very tough race this cycle.

NY 25:

No others data


Syracuse is one of the three cities that vie for the claim to be the founding place for the Republican Party. And for years, it elected Republicans regularly to Congress. But as the 20th Century wore on, the city shifted leftward, and in 2008, the district containing the city gave Barack Obama 56 percent of the vote.
In 2008 it also voted for Dan Maffei, the first Democrat to represent the district in several decades. Maffei has proved to be a reliable vote for the Democratic leadership, and faces a surprisingly stiff challenge from state Assistant Attorney General Ann Marie Buerkle. If the wave gets big enough, Maffei could be in real trouble.
