ALBANY - Democratic congressional hopeful Antonio Delgado holds a 5-point lead over Republican incumbent John Faso, according to a Monmouth University poll released on Tuesday.
The latest poll for the 19th Congressional District, which stretches from the Capital Region deep into the Hudson Valley, breaks down to 49 percent for Delgado, 44 percent for Faso, 3 percent for the two third-party candidates and 4 percent are undecided. When factoring a surge of Democratic voters similar to special elections over the past year, Delgado's support jumps to 51 percent and his lead grows to 8 percentage points.
In September, Delgado led Faso by 3 points in a Monmouth poll. Faso has never trailed in a poll conducted by the Siena Research Institute, which gave him a 1-point margin earlier this month.
"The Democrat has strengthened his standing in this race even though Republican interest has picked up over the past month," Monmouth University Polling Institute Director Patrick Murray said in a statement.

It's good to see that it's not working.
