Voters 50+ in NY Congressional Districts 3 & 22 Want Candidates to Protect Social Security & Medicare, Lower Rx Prices, & Help NYers Age at Home, New Surveys Find

Likely voters age 50 and over in New York’s newly redrawn 3^rd congressional district centered in Long Island’s Nassau County and the new 22^nd district in Central New York are leaning Republican but are unified on key pocketbook issues, according to AARP-commissioned surveys released today.

The surveys show overwhelming majorities would be more likely to vote for a candidate who supports protecting Social Security and Medicare from cuts, letting Medicare negotiate lower prescription drug prices, and allowing older Americans to use Medicaid for home care services to avoid nursing homes.

See AARP NY’s press releases for the 3rd district survey  and for the 22nd district survey.

See the survey reports for the 3^rd district survey here and for the 22^nd district here.
