From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
David Paterson has served in several elected positions, including the New York State Senate and as Lieutenant Governor of New York.
As a running mate to Eliot Spitzer, Paterson scored a landslide victory in the 2006 election with 69% of the vote. It was the largest margin of victory in a gubernatorial race in New York history, and the second-largest for any statewide race in New York history. The only larger victory was Chuck Schumer's 71% victory in his successful reelection bid for the U.S. Senate two years earlier. Spitzer carried all but three counties in the state.[citation needed]
