Spin Cycle

Nassau Democratic Chairman Jay Jacobs says there is "strong turnout" in the King-Mejias race, higher than normal for an off-year election, but not huge.
"We've got a great operation going," he said. "I've got a lot of lawyers in the street. A lot of troops on the ground, getting out the vote, knocking on doors. We have to see if it bears fruit. I did a Stop-and-Shop with Tom Suozzi and Dave Mejias in Glen Cove this afternoon. There was a very positive response for Dave Mejias. My guess is that this election is going to be close. King's people think he 's going to win by a blowout. I don't think it's going to be a blowout. If our party did its job, Dave Mejias will be our next congressman."
