🚨RATINGS CHANGE: Sabato’s Crystal Ball Shifts NY-17 to TOSS-UP As Momentum Continues to Build Behind Cait Conley

Sabato’s Crystal Ball becomes the third non-partisan race rater to shift their rating in latest sign Mike Lawler is on the ropes

Today, non-partisan race rater Sabato’s Crystal Ball updated their prediction for NY-17, and it’s not looking good for career political operative Mike Lawler.

The shift reflects recent polling that shows Army combat veteran Cait Conley leading Lawler after he “drew what appeared to be his strongest potential challenger” and Hudson Valley voters continue to hear about his record of failed promises and supporting Donald Trump’s agenda 100% of the time.

DCCC Spokesperson Riya Vashi:
“The more Hudson Valley voters learn about Mike Lawler’s record of self-dealing, corruption, and cost-spiking votes, the worse things get for him. The momentum in this race is fully behind Cait Conley.”
