Siena College pollster Steve Greenberg says 80% of voters believe that the cost of living is a problem, which includes the cost of groceries, gas , and rent or a mortgage.

The Siena College poll finds that 82 percent of New Yorkers are concerned about the state’s migrant crisis, which they view as a “serious” problem.
