Daily Kos reports that the only polls of the 19th Congressional District race so far have come from the candidates themselves. Republican John Faso released a poll a few weeks ago from McLaughlin & Associates that gave him a 46-41 lead over Democrat Zephyr Teachout to replace Republican Chris Gibson (R-Kinderhook). Teachout and the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee released a poll Sept. 20 showing the Democrat leading Faso 47-42. The DCCC poll also has Hillary Clinton leading Donald Trump by three points in the district. Barack Obama carried this area 52-46 in 2012. Read the full story at Daily Kos.
