The fate of 39 absentee ballots in the election between Rep. Anthony Brindisi and Claudia Tenney is up in the air after election officials admitted in court today that they lost sticky notes attached to some of the ballots.
Oneida County’s election commissioners told state Supreme Court Justice Scott J. DelConte that the color-coded notes explained how the ballots were handled and whether they were counted.
But by the time an envelope arrived at DelConte’s courtroom, at least eight ballots had no sticky note.
DelConte asked Cardone how to determine whether a ballot was counted and whether it was contested.
“You can’t,” she admitted.
Both commissioners said they believed each ballot had a sticky note on it and had no clue as to how they could have fallen off the ballots or what could have gone wrong in the process.
“We have a serious problem on our hands,” DelConte said.

We'd be better off letting candidates have a duel.
Has no heard of a stapler? Staple the notes next time.
NY State government is a cross between Soviet East Germany and Bolivia (and I’m probably not being fair to Bolivia)
NY City today STILL has hundreds of thousands of uncounted ballots.
The entire state’s election counting is a mess.
Good grief, the Democrats have made voting into an absolute joke. Which was their intention from the start.
Put the duel on Pay-Per-View!

It’s a true mystery. /sarc
What a bunch of BS.
Seriously? I mean are you serious? Sticky notes deciding the fate of an election?
No next time, they need to find a few hundred to get the Dem back in.
“Sticky notes?”
This crap is downright embarrassing.
Yep, enough time to steal elections.
This sounds like a comedy skit.
You can’t make this stuff up.
No kidding, there are no checks and balances, open for a steal every time.
“We’d be better off letting candidates have a duel.”
The socialist demon party would make sure your gun was not loaded, had no pin, shell had no powder, gravel in your barrel, etc, etc...
Yep, like toilets backing up in Georgia, which never happened.
Other than Claudia is still ahead.
For now.
some alive people voted then died...i think they are trying to figure out what to do with them as well
Lost, my derriere.
Yeah, sticky notes fell off.
Mabye they wanted them to fall off.
