Scarsdale was Democratic-leaning a bit before 1992, at least. The more liberal Jewish community was a major support base for Nita Lowey in her successful US House campaign in 1988 (she won by flipping the NY-20 district 50-48 while George HW Bush carried her district 51-48) compared to more conservative towns at the time like Eastchester, Pelham, and Rye. NY-20 was also fairly competitive during the 1980s, so it's possible either Mondale or, more likely, Dukakis won Scarsdale at the presidential level.
