Key votes

Key votes cast by Gillibrand

Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-N.Y.) cast the following key votes—votes that help citizens understand where their legislators stand on major policy issues—during the 115th Congress, which convened on January 3, 2017, and adjourned on January 3, 2019.

Noteworthy events

Brett Kavanaugh confirmation vote

See also: Supreme Court vacancy, 2018: An overview

On October 6, 2018, the U.S. Senate voted to confirm the nomination of Judge Brett Kavanaugh to the U.S. Supreme Court. Fifty senators voted to confirm Kavanaugh's nomination, 48 voted against, and Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) voted present. A simple majority was required to confirm Kavanaugh.[41]

Gillibrand voted against Kavanaugh's confirmation on October 6, 2018. In a tweet before the vote, she said, "The stakes of the vote on Kavanaugh? Deciding whether we’re a country that listens to and believes women. Each of my colleagues in the Senate needs to determine if women’s voices, traumas and stories matter to them. I’ve made my decision."[42]

Farley stated that she would have voted to confirm Kavanaugh, saying, "The judicial confirmation process is broken. Washington itself is broken. Too many career politicians like Kirsten Gillibrand have placed their personal ambitions ahead of the best interests of our nation. Not advancing Judge Kavanaugh would set a dangerous precedent for future nominees of both parties. It is time to move forward and confirm Judge Kavanaugh."[43]


2016 Pivot Counties

See also: Pivot Counties and Congressional districts intersecting with Pivot Counties

New York features 12 congressional districts that, based on boundaries adopted after the 2010 census, intersected with one or more Pivot Counties. These 206 Pivot Counties voted for Donald Trump (R) in 2016 after voting for Barack Obama (D) in 2008 and 2012.

The 206 Pivot Counties are located in 34 states. Iowa, with 31, had the most such counties. Heading into the 2018 elections, the partisan makeup of the 108 congressional districts intersecting with Pivot Counties was more Republican than the partisan breakdown of the U.S. House. Of the 108 congressional districts that had at least one Pivot County, 63 percent were held by a Republican incumbent, while 55.4 percent of U.S. House seats were won by a Republican in the 2016 elections.[44]

Campaign themes

Democratic Party Kirsten Gillibrand

Gillibrand's campaign website stated the following:

“

An Economy That Rewards Work
Kirsten believes in building an economy that rewards the contributions of its workers and entrepreneurs. To create more good-paying jobs across New York, she is helping our startups and small businesses access opportunity and ensuring more products are stamped "Made in America." To improve the quality of jobs for all Americans, she is fighting for stronger unions, for workers to own a stake in the success of their business, and for a minimum wage that lifts all working families out of poverty.

Supporting Our Working Families
Workplace policies have not kept up with the needs of our changing workforce, harming our middle class. Kirsten believes that we must transform our policies to help meet the needs families face every day. That’s why she is leading fights in the Senate to create a national paid and medical family leave program and to make child care affordable and accessible for all American workers.

Seniors
As a member of the Senate Aging Committee, Kirsten will oppose any efforts to cut the Social Security and Medicare benefits seniors have earned. Kirsten is also focused on ways to create more job opportunities for seniors, stop their exploitation, and help these New Yorkers save for retirement. She firmly opposes all efforts to privatize Social Security and believes in ensuring its solvency for the next generation without raising the retirement age. She is also leading the charge to combat senior fraud by introducing legislation to protect vulnerable citizens from scammers who try to steal personal information and harm them financially.

Protecting The Environment
From addressing the impacts of climate change to ensuring clean air and water for all New Yorkers, protecting our environment for future generations is an important responsibility that we all share. As a member of the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee, Kirsten advocates to safeguard our natural resources from toxic substances and harmful chemicals, and calls for aggressive action to stem the tide of global climate change.

Women’s Empowerment And Opportunity
When women are given every chance to succeed in the workplace and at home, we're all better off. Kirsten believes that equal pay is key to helping working families. She helped to pass the Lily Ledbetter Fair Pay Act, and advocates for passage of the Paycheck Fairness Act to ensure equal pay in America. She’ll continue to fight for policies that will expand opportunity for women across the country, such as increasing funding for women-owned small businesses and supporting women in STEM fields.

Transparency And Accountability
Every American has the right to know how their elected representatives are serving them. As the first member of Congress to post her daily official meetings on her website, and among the first to post federal earmark requests and personal financial disclosures, Kirsten has been committed to transparency throughout her career. She also wrote and secured the passage of the STOCK Act, that provides transparency and ensures that members of Congress play by the same rules as everyone else.

Health Care
It’s simple: Health care should be a basic human right, not a privilege for the few. As Kirsten has traveled across New York State, it’s clear that there’s still much work left to do to ensure high-quality, affordable health care for everyone who needs it—that’s why she supports working toward building a Medicare-For-All health care system in America.

Immigration
America does not just tolerate immigration; it thrives on the contributions of immigrants. Kirsten supports comprehensive immigration reform that gives immigrants a path to earned citizenship; and she will stand up on behalf of the hundreds of thousands of Dreamers who deserve to stay in this country by supporting the DREAM Act.

Defending Those Who Protect Us
Kirsten believes it is our responsibility stand up for brave service members and first responders who protect us every single day. She overcame tough partisan opposition to secure the passage of the Zadroga Act, which provides health care and compensation for 9/11 first responders affected by the toxins at Ground Zero. She advocates for justice for victims of sexual assault in the military by fighting to pass the Military Justice Improvement Act, legislation that would move decision making in sexual assault cases from the military chain of command to trained military prosecutors. She was a strong voice for opening up combat positions to women and is now focused on the recruitment and retention of women in these positions, and setting them up for success. Today, she is leading the fight to allow continued transgender service in the military.

Women’s Health And Reproductive Rights
A woman’s ability to access affordable reproductive health care is a basic right. Kirsten is committed to protecting and defending women's access to the full range of reproductive health care services. She will always push back against the efforts of those who seek to restrict women's reproductive freedom. Her work has earned her a 100% rating from Planned Parenthood and NARAL.

National Security
As the leading Democrat on the Senate Armed Services Personnel Subcommittee, Kirsten works to improve the lives of service members and their families by focusing on issues like mental health and childcare. She advocates to ensure that the U.S. has the resources and personnel needed to protect our country from cyber attacks; she has fought to ensure that federal anti-terrorism funding is prioritized for places, like New York, that bear the greatest threats to our safety and security; she has worked to provide critical tools and funding to our first responders; and she led the fight to pass into law a bill to create a nationwide, broadband network for first responders. Finally, she is committed to ensuring that the U.S. will always stand with Israel, our historic and closest ally in the Middle East—and has long led the effort to ensure support for a joint U.S.-Israeli cooperative missile defense program.

Republican Party Chele Farley

Farley's campaign website stated the following:

“

Put New York First
New York isn’t getting its fair share under the failed status quo. Each year, Washington politicians take $48 billion more from New York taxpayers than we get back from the federal government. That’s far more than any other state in the country. Career politicians caused this mess. For too long, New Yorkers have been held hostage by career politicians more focused on their own narrow interests than doing what’s right for our state. Meanwhile, here at home we have crumbling roads and bridges, our public transit systems are falling apart and our access to clean water is jeopardized. As a businesswoman and a negotiator, I will fight to put New York First in the United States Senate and ensure we get our fair share of federal funding to rebuild and improve our infrastructure.

Jobs and Taxes
New York is the highest-taxed state in the country. Onerous tax rates and reduced economic opportunities have caused over 1 million people to flee New York State since 2010. What are we getting for the amount we pay in taxes? Crumbling infrastructure and higher property taxes. A bad deal was only made worse by the recent cap on the state and local tax deduction in the federal tax bill. Senator Kirsten Gillibrand’s solution? A new financial transactions tax. This tax would force out more businesses and create even greater job losses. Gillibrand’s refusal to work to recover the $48 billion we lose every year to Washington is an insult to New York taxpayers. As your Senator, I will fight to get the money back and use these funds to help fix our roads and mass transit systems, which will create jobs and lower taxes for New Yorkers.

Term Limits
Washington is broken. Career politicians spend too much time fighting over partisan issues instead of working for the American people and implementing solutions. The answer is to limit the terms of Congress just like we do for the President. I am running for Senate to represent New York families, not to build a political career. I have pledged to the people of New York to only serve two terms.

Standing with Israel
Chele Farley knows the United States has no stronger ally than Israel.

  • Chele Farley had the pleasure of visiting Israel with Young Israel this past May. Ahead of the new U.S. Embassy’s official opening in Jerusalem, she met with Ambassador Friedman.
  • She supported President Trump’s actions to move the embassy and to get out of the flawed Iran Nuclear deal.
  • No state has as close a connection with the people of Israel than New York. As New York’s Senator, Chele will protect and strengthen that bond and stand strong to protect Israel’s security.
  • She strongly supports and would vote for the anti-BDS legislation in Congress.
  • She is exploring tuition vouchers at the federal level.

A Strong Foreign Policy
America must remain a force for freedom around the world. We must continue to work with our allies to increase our economic ties and strengthen global security. However, our nation’s foreign policy must advance America’s interests FIRST. I strongly opposed the Iran Nuclear Deal because it put Iran on a path to obtaining nuclear weapons and threatened our strongest ally, Israel. President Donald Trump is right to open a dialogue with North Korea in an effort to denuclearize the Korean peninsula.

We must also refocus our trade policies by opening up new negotiations with countries to create a fairer deal for the United States. This includes the threat of tariffs as a way to bring countries to the negotiating table. My years of private sector experience taught me how to renegotiate a bad deal, and that’s what too many of our trade deals are – bad for Americans. We need to fight for American workers, American businesses and American interests. As your Senator, I will make sure New York comes FIRST when negotiating these deals.

Opioid Epidemic
Drug overdose deaths – particularly from opioid abuse – have become a national crisis. From 2000 to 2015, more than 500,000 people died of drug overdoses, with the majority coming from opioid-related addiction. In 2016 the Centers for Disease Control documented 64,000 deaths from drug overdoses with over 3,600 of them in New York.

We must get serious about addressing the opioid-addiction epidemic that is plaguing our communities. As your Senator, I will work to combat overprescribing of opioids, work to increase access to longer-term treatment facilities across the state, work to update privacy laws to make sure medical providers know if a person has struggled with opioid addiction when treating them for other ailments, and support the death penalty for drug kingpins who sell lethal heroin.

Wave election analysis

See also: Wave elections (1918-2016)

The term wave election is frequently used to describe an election cycle in which one party makes significant electoral gains. How many seats would Republicans have had to lose for the 2018 midterm election to be considered a wave election?

Ballotpedia examined the results of the 50 election cycles that occurred between 1918 and 2016—spanning from President Woodrow Wilson's (D) second midterm in 1918 to Donald Trump's (R) first presidential election in 2016. We define wave elections as the 20 percent of elections in that period resulting in the greatest seat swings against the president's party.

Applying this definition to U.S. Senate elections, we found that Republicans needed to lose seven seats for 2018 to qualify as a wave election.

The chart below shows the number of seats the president's party lost in the 10 U.S. Senate waves from 1918 to 2016. Click here to read the full report.
