Poll: Mangano, Suozzi Statistically Tied
The county executive edged the Democrat by only 386 votes in 2009.
A Newsday/Siena College poll released this week showed the rematch between County Executive Ed Mangano and challenger Tom Suozzi could go down to the wire.
Suozzi led Mangano in the poll, by a 42 percent to 41 percent margin, well within the 2.4 percent margin of error.
Mangano took over as county executive in 2009, when he stunned the heavily favored Tom Suozzi by 386 votes.
The poll surveyed 1,715 Nassau registered voters.
Suozzi still has to win the Democratic primary on Sept. 10, but that shouldn't be a large obstacle for the former county executive, if the most recent poll is to be believed.
Suozzi led challenger Adam Haber 58 percent to 25 percent.
