Campaigns react to reported lead change in 22nd District
Rome Sentinel ^ | 11/27/2020 | website post

Posted on 11/30/2020 7:27:51 AM PST by 1Old Pro

The court case that will likely decide who represents New York’s 22nd District in Congress resumes next week, after at least two media organizations reported incumbent first-term Democrat Anthony Brindisi has taken the lead — by 13 votes.

The Cook Political Report and WBNG television of Binghamton reported that after election boards in the eight-county district reported the votes they have counted to Supreme Court Justice Scott DelConte, Brindisi led former one-term Republican Congresswoman Claudia Tenney 155,435 votes to 155,422.

DelConte issued an injunction stopping certification of the results until he can review more challenged absentee, affidavit and other paper ballots and hear both sides’ arguments.

He directed both sides to file their motions by 5 p.m. Monday and counter arguments a day later, and scheduled oral arguments for Thursday in Supreme Court in Oswego County.

“Governor Cuomo’s unfair, unwise, and unilateral rules changes and administrative burdens overwhelmed our voting system and created this utter dysfunction,” Tenney’s announcement said.

“As a result, the law was not followed when ballots were challenged and tabulated in this election. The result remains far from resolved. Hundreds of ineligible ballots were illegally or improperly cast including votes by the dead, non-residents, or unregistered voters,” her statement added.

“Those ballots should not – and must not – be counted. The hearing in court has already established that the current tally includes invalid votes and that the process to review and count the massive amount of paper ballots is fractured,” the statement, which was released Wednesday, said.

“Today’s misleading and inaccurate tally is rife with errors and mistakes that must be rectified before this election is certified. It is far from final.”

Voter fraud is what the Democratic Party does.

They should be banned as a criminal enterprise.

So if she loses, it would be the 1st house seat the Democrats flipped.

She is not the incumbent so this would not be a flip.

I knew the Dems would “find” enough votes to the the Dem ahead in this one. The question is if they will get away with their fraud.

I agree. The FEC should be asked to de-certify the Democrat National Committee due to the acts of the criminal enterprise it is.

This is a misleading statement then:

Brindisi led former one-term Republican Congresswoman Claudia Tenney 155,435 votes to 155,422

She had been a 1 term Republican Congresswoman then, and lost to this person and was trying to win it back then?

I'm guessing this was the scenario? I guess the former should have clued me, but I am so used to seeing poorly written articles anymore that I just thought that must be the case here. 8>)

Yes, she served one term from 2016-2018, then lost to Brandisi in 2018, and now trying to take it back.

“NEW: The Herkimer County BOE has apparently revised its final, unofficial count.
@claudiatenney (R) nets 35 votes, @RepBrindisi (D) 10.

In the latest twist and turn in this race, Tenney once again leads by 12 votes in #NY22”

It’s Dino Rossi all over again. For the umpteenth time.

The Dems keep counting and adding ballots until they finally get ahead, at which point the “recount” is declared over.

How many fraudulent recounts are the GOP going to allow before the public actually gets angry?
