I'm skeptical of any polling for the issue, mostly because polls have huge issues with data collecting and getting a representative sample, particularly on things like local issues.
Depending on
* how the question was framed ("Do you think the second headquarters of Amazon will be a positive?" vs. "Do you think the deal with Amazon will be positive?" vs. "Do you think tax breaks for Amazon are good?")
* how informed the voter was required to be; people are notoriously uninformed and uninterested about anything that isn't a presidential election
* how residents were contacted (was it a landline poll? mail? survey on the street? online? because these all have different populations to be accounted for)
* who counts as a valid resident for the survey? someone who lives in Buffalo? someone who lives in Westchester? someone who lives in Manhattan? someone who lives in Flushing? etc.
Polls predicted that AOC would lose her race, and that clearly didn't happen.
