What a unified Democratic push for the Senate looks like, maybe
Laura Nahmias
ALBANYAfter a divisive primary contest, New Yorks Democrats are beginning a united campaign to reclaim a majority in the states Senate.
For the first time in many years, all of the states Democrats, including Governor Andrew Cuomo and a united front of labor groups, have publicly agreed to work toward a Democratic majority in the Senate.
On Wednesday morning, the two sides that opposed each other in the primary both turned their focus to the Senate.
New York City mayor Bill de Blasio, who backed Cuomo for re-election, encouraged a roomful of donors to contribute money to the effort, while explaining that Democratic control in Albany is key to implementing many of the mayors priorities in his first term.
