“During Dereco our electric did not come back on until 6 days later.
This situation will be much more difficult for New York city because a lot of their electric infrastructure is under ground.”

With this much damage, I wonder how NYC will cope with the election come November 6. Power may not be restored, and many who evacuated may not be able to return in time to vote. Similar situation in New Jersey.

Having said that, both New York state and New Jersey could postpone their respective elections, without really impacting the presidential contest.

Even Pennsylvania and West Virginia could be impacted, election-wise...

Maybe New York could pull the old lever-style voting booths out of storage?

I dunno. I expect NY to go to obama because of the NYC vote. If he doesn't have that to count on, NY could actually be up for grabs.
