Joshua Dyck, assistant professor of political science, is quoted in an article distributed by Reuters on next week's special congressional election, a tight, three-way battle for New York's 26th congressional district. "The national dialogue I've heard, which I think is wrong, is that the race is close because it's a referendum on the national budget. The only reason that it's in play is because Jack Davis is in the race," he said. The article appeared in a number of news outlets, including CNBC.com.
