I thought the NY assembly was now under Republican control after those 2 dems switched the other day.

No, it is the NY State Senate where the switch has taken place. The Dems became the majority in the State Senate this year, after many years in the minority there. Then, last week, the two Democratic State Senators said they would vote in the Republican caucus, giving the State Senate back to the Republicans.

The NY State Assembly has always been under the control of the Democrats, as far as I can remember.

NYS assembly has been Dem controlled since the mid 1960’s. To my knowledge the GOP has never retaken it since.
