From MSNMoney:
New York State Attorney General Andrew Cuomo would win the governor’s race easily if it were held today, says a new statewide survey.
The Quinnipiac Poll gives Cuomo a 4-1 edge over Gov. David Paterson for the Democratic gubernatorial nomination. Cuomo was supported by 61 percent of the Democrats who were surveyed, compared to 15 percent for Paterson.
And Cuomo would have a nine-point lead in a hypothetical general-election matchup with former New York City Mayor Rudolph Giuliani, a possible Republican candidate. The levels of support were 48 percent for Cuomo and 39 percent for Giuliani.
