  • Summary

  • Next Tuesday is primary day here in New York City. There are three Congressional primaries and several primaries for State Senate and the Assembly. NY1 investigative reporter Courtney Gross, political reporter Bobby Cuza and Statehouse reporter Bernadette Hogan look at some of the more high-profile races including NY-16 in parts of the Bronx and Westchester — between Democrats George Latimer and the incumbent Jamaal Bowman. They also look at some down-ballot races which have been receiving less attention.

    After that, in an about-face, Gov. Hochul is considering banning commuters from wearing face masks on mass transit. The possible move comes as there are increasing concerns that criminals are wearing masks while they commit crimes. The proposal immediately sparked controversy, and comes as the governor faces her lowest favorability and job approval ratings ever, according to a new Siena College poll. The "Off Topic" team discusses the proposed ban as well as Hochul’s plummeting poll numbers.
