610/610: +65 Murphy, and the election will now not be over for another two weeks. The deadline for absentee ballots is April 13th, and if you think that either candidate is not going to insist on every second of that time… HAH!
609/610: 81 vote difference. Heck, this may go to a runoff.
607/610: Murphy takes lead with 200 votes; it’s going to the absentee ballots, folks.
591/610 Tedisco down to 30 votes+; I assume that means recount.
At 505/610, Tedisco is ahead by 1100 votes. As it stands, he will win Saratoga & Delaware Counties, and lose Columbia County. I don’t think Murphy can make up those votes in Columbia.
At 386/610: if this holds up, and the Saratoga results hold up… Tedisco wins.
At 312/610, 51/49 Tedisco/Murphy.
And with Warren County’s results in… not enough there to make it up for Murphy.
Still 52/48 at 168/610.
Saratoga County’s showing a 3K vote lead there with 43% in.
At 90/610 districts: Tedisco/Murphy 52/48
Very minimal this time: I’m still trying to find a results page.

Achance Tuesday, March 31st at 9:24PM EDT (link)They had poll watchers in every polling place all day. They knew their voters and they checked off theirs and ours. By late afternoon, they knew how many votes they were likely to need. They rolled the ACORN vans full of “voters” who voted often and right. Then they hung on to a few D precincts that they could safely sandbag ballots in because the election judges were theirs just in case they needed late insurance votes. Simple stuff, really.

1) How dumb in the average Dem voter
2) Why do they hate the successful
3) Why do they want to rely on government
Just look at them. I bet if you asked them what they knew about the Constitution they would stare blankly, say Bush tore it up or “Constitution, you mean when you have trouble going to the bathroom?”

Not likely

Why do you think the Dems howled so much over the Florida recount? They couldn’t sneak enough ballots in to make up the difference.

65 votes??
Jack Tuesday, March 31st at 9:45PM EDT (link)In a district where we outnumber the dims by 70,000 votes we lost this race? Who the Hell was in charge of voter turnout, Bozo the clown? What has happened to our voter turnout apparatus? This is pathetic. No ACORN stories this was one we just flat out blew.

New York State Republicans are different than National Ones
scarlos Tuesday, March 31st at 9:51PM EDT (link)The state party is more Liberal than the National one (Republicans control one of the 2 state houses after all) and Tedisco was only polling like 70% among registered R’s compared to Murphy’s 90-ish for Democrats.
It’s like West Virginia and Arkansas–The Democrats have huge majorities in voter registration there, but also have alot of cross-over vote in presidential elections.
How can anyone be surprised when an ideology that regards wealth as a cardinal sin cannot produce it?

The District is only CPVI R+3

Obama won this district though, which is one of the reasons a Tedisco win would be significant

really?
Jack Tuesday, March 31st at 10:29PM EDT (link)I lived and worked in Upstate New York. I also worked as a field consultant for the New York State Senate Republican Campaign Committee when Warren Anderson was the majority leader. I was one district over from the 20th.
Upstate New York is very conservative. Yyou could take some of those counties and drop them in Alabama or Mississippi and you would not miss a beat.
George Bush won that district twice. The conservative party is big in that area. This is not good what happened.
I also did campaigns in West Virginia. What has impacted that State is the old line dims are gone. They died, retired, moved on to other places. Those hard line any dimocrat will do dims have disappeared.

I'm going off the CPVI here
scarlos Tuesday, March 31st at 10:39PM EDT (link)On average the 19-29th districts (representing New York state North of NYC) give the Democrats about 2% more than their national average.
This is primarily because of the reliably Democratic areas near Albany and Buffalo, but the rural areas are only lightly Republican in national competitions.

No Excuses
Section9 Tuesday, March 31st at 9:53PM EDT (link)The A**Clown NRCC blew it again. We have a 70,000 voter edge and lost the election day contest by 55 votes, and we can’t even blame ACORN.
Who the heck is running the show in D.C.? I don’t think you can really blame Steele, as this wasn’t his baby.

Absentee Ballots
dld1717 Tuesday, March 31st at 9:53PM EDT (link)The AP now says the race is too close to call. “There are at least 6,000 and possibly as many as 10,000 absentee ballots that will not be included in the results for at least a week.”
New York agreed to count overseas absentee ballots until April 13, so this race may not be settled for a while.
This is simple
bk Tuesday, March 31st at 10:02PM EDT (link)If Murphy is ahead by one vote, then he won fair and square and it’s over. Tedisco is a crybaby sore loser if he feels otherwise.
If Tedisco is ahead by less than 1,000 votes, then Al Franken’s lawyers are on redeye flights tonight. They need to make sure all the votes are counted.
And on a related note
bk Tuesday, March 31st at 10:06PM EDT (link)A Murphy victory by one vote shows overwhelming support for The One since this is a traditionally Republican district.
A Tedisco victory will be under the margin of Republican registered voters, so it will still prove overwhelming support for The One. Except there won’t be a Tedisco victory as this would get tied up in court until the normal election in 18 months or so first.
While an outright win is best, a squeaker already shows
streetwise Tuesday, March 31st at 10:17PM EDT (link)that the GOP has gained ground in the district and that its online fundraising game is getting much better.
And now we must oversee the absentee count and fund the legal work that may be coming.
Never surrender!
A thought experiment for everyone
robmikpet Tuesday, March 31st at 10:22PM EDT (link)Since Sen Kennedy changed immigration parameters in 1964 shifting the great majority of new citizens to come from third world countries with no history with freedom and liberty and that also included chain migration as in you are allowed to bring 100 of your relatives to the country.
They now are here as first or second generation citizens that add upwards of 10 million votes more for Dems than Republicans. These are the people that vote for Chavez like politicians. Is there any wonder why we have Obama and the Dems in power.
And the good news is ther are 16 million more waiting for amnesty and the Dems are ready to give it to them.
Re: Michael Steele
katesmith Wednesday, April 1st at 12:30AM EDT (link)I will blame him because I heard a certain radio host reference him today. If the man is going to have a public persona it should be as a battering ram for us, not recounting his partying or dancing days. That was the gist of the brief mention of Steele today (Tues). We’re in the same position now as in the presidential election, ie begging a candidate or representative to go out there and fight for our ideals (as happened with crowds begging McCain to act like he cared). I hope the egomaniac pushing his little petition knows he is just another version of McCain: a vain loser who doesn’t care if he brings the country down as long as he gets attention. Which he was doing anyway by promoting global warming.
