Democrats face accusations of fraud in House race after 28,000-vote lead on election night erased by judge and mail-in ballots

A New York congressional race came down to a judge personally reviewing individual spoiled ballots, resulting in the Democratic incumbent erasing his nearly 30,000-vote deficit to take a 13-vote lead and declaring victory.

“In NY-22, the Democrat incumbent was trailing by almost 30K on election night,” said Hot Air editor Jazz Shaw on Twitter. “The mail-in ballots got him close. Then a Democrat judge from Syracuse ruled he would personally ‘review’ all of the spoiled ballots that had been rejected. Guess what happened next.”

“The judge miraculously ‘found’ enough ballots that he felt were okay and the incumbent now ‘leads’ by 13 votes,” Shaw continued.

“This process and the integrity of our election are critical to our republic. This judicial review has been fair, open, honest, and transparent, and I remain confident that voters’ voices will be heard,” said Freshmen Rep. Anthony Brindisi of the results. “In January, I will be sworn in and continue to work with both parties and stand up to anyone on behalf of all of New York’s 22nd district.”

Brindisi trailed Republican challenger Claudia Tenney by about 28,000 votes on election night in New York’s 22nd Congressional District but closed that gap over the next few weeks to just 100-200 votes as mail-in ballots were counted.

Despite Tenney’s slim lead, Owego County state Supreme Court Justice Scott DelConte issued an injunction to block election officials certifying the results, setting the stage for Brindisi’s 13 vote lead.

“BREAKING: sources on both Dem & GOP sides confirm that the final counts submitted by all 8 counties in #NY22 to NY Supreme Court Justice Scott DelConte will show Rep. Anthony Brindisi (D) *ahead* of Claudia Tenney (R) by either 12 or 13 votes. Wow,” Cook Political Report editor Dave Wasserman said on Twitter.

But Tenney’s campaign said they were not giving up the fight.

“Brindisi’s premature declaration of victory is further evidence that his team has no interest in ensuring a fair process that preserves the integrity of the election and protects the rights of voters. We will fight to ensure that all and only legal counts are counted — not jump to faulty conclusions,” the Tenney campaign told the New York Post.

That patience paid off Monday, when the Herkimer County Board of Elections revised its final count, netting Tenney 35 votes and putting her in the lead by 12.

With the razor-thin margin swinging back and forth, Wasserman doesn’t expect the result of the race to be finalized anytime soon.

“Whiplash: now it's Claudia Tenney (R) back ahead of Rep. Anthony Brindisi (D) by 12 votes in #NY22 after Herkimer Co. revises its count,” Wasserman said. “Legal fight far from over.”

Cheaters will continue to cheat. Liars will continue to lie.
The American People suffer. Now, nobody believes or trusts anybody. The media plays the same old song and dance.

My gawd!

They don't even make the lies believable - but I guess they don't have to considering the Presidential election.

As one of the members of the AZ legislature stated yesterday, this is a massive RICO crime.

Mail in ballots are designed only for FRAUD

They must be eliminated completely.

Once the fraudsters have both houses of Congress and the Presidency, expect them to MANDATE 100% MAIL-IN BALLOTS.

The Democrats plan started back in 2000 with the Bush/Gore controversy of “hanging paper chads.” They invented the “hanging chad” theory to get rid of the most transparent voting system we ever had with paper ballots. It was at that point that the Democrats used the “hanging chad” fiasco as a reason to begin developing the new electronic voting machines which now have progressed into an entirely corruptible form of electronic voting supported by big tech and China.

Now that precedent has been set, when does SCOTUS get to see every mailin vote in GA, VA, PA, WI, and AZ that arrived after polls closed?

The judge has ordered a fresh toner cartridge from Staples. The ruling continues.

Oops, the Judge will decide its time to start counting again. This is better than an Easter Egg Hunt!

How is a judge able to review these ballots and make a decision without others reviewing this as well from both sides, they do it because they feel they can get away with it, enough of these a##es ruling from the bench, many are compromised, many! The silent majority needs to show them all what we are about
