Feb 2017

New York State Senate

Republican (31)
Independent Democratic (8)
Caucusing Democrat (1)
Democratic (23)

How is Independent Democrat different from Democrat?

State Assembly is overwhelming Democratic

Democratic (106)
Independence (1)
Republican (43)

So how did the Senate end up Republican?
