Obama Expected to Easily Win NY, State Senate Control Could Shift

The 2012 election in New York state is expected to deliver few surprises, but one could be control of the state Senate. Senate Republicans have a 33-29 advantage over Democrats, their only base of power in the state where every statewide official is a Democrat. But a handful of races that could swing the majority are still up in the air. President Barack Obama is expected to easily capture the state's 29 electoral votes in his contest against Mitt Romney. In 2008, he won 62 percent of the state against John McCain.
