Editor’s note: Take our state legislative races to watch poll for a chance to win City & State swag

City & State readers love a good political poll, especially when the incentive is a chance to win some swag. When our editorial team asked last year when the state budget would pass, more than 300 readers responded for a chance to win a City & State shower curtain. Another 300-plus readers answered the call when we posed the same question this year, all for the chance of winning the highly coveted prize of a City & State bath mat.

With this year’s election season well underway, City & State’s editorial team now invites readers to take on our new state legislative races to watch poll. Our staff identified 22 competitive state Senate and Assembly races to ask which Democratic, Republican and third-party candidates our readers predict will win these closely watched contests. To take the poll, go to https://bit.ly/3THKcDZ. If you’re wondering what the prize is for picking the most correct answers, well it’s more City & State swag! But rather than pick from our bathroom accessory line again, our staff opted to make this latest incentive a mystery. The possibilities range from City & State T-shirts, coffee mugs and hoodies to rugs, jigsaw puzzles and even skateboards and face masks. The prize will come from City & State’s full list of swag merch, which can be found at https://bit.ly/4g7MAx8. Many readers are surprised to discover that City & State actually has an online store. But before you pull out your wallet, we encourage you to first please take a stab at the poll. It’s a lot more fun to claim that swag as a badge of honor and for bragging rights as a City & State reader.
