Black Democrats back Cuomo hands down, and black voters in general give Cuomo better grades than the Governor on every measure -- even in a race against [former] Mayor Rudolph Giuliani," said Quinnipiac's Maurice Carroll.
The poll basically confirms what other recent polls in New York have reported. If Giuliani faces off against Paterson in a general election, he leads 54 percent to 32 percent, but Cuomo beats Giuliani, 50-40. Paterson would run even with Republican Rep. Rick Lazio at 38 percent, while Cuomo would trounce Lazio, 61 percent to 22 percent.
