A new Siena poll shows Gov. Kathy Hochul leading her Republican challenger, Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman, by 9 points.

The poll is little changed from last month, when it was a 10-point spread.

Only half of likely voters say they are voting for Hochul. 41% say they are voting for Blakeman.

The majority of those polled think Hochul will win, including a third of Republicans.

Election Day is six weeks away, on Nov. 3.
