I’ll tell you up front that I don’t have an updated tally based on the last three days of reviewing ballots. Judge DelConte is keeping that tally but it hasn’t been released to anyone and probably won’t be this week. What we do know is that the judge is continuing to plow through thousands of disputed ballots one at a time.
On Tuesday, Judge Scott DelConte reviewed 400 ballots coming from Broome County and will continue with Oneida County on Wednesday, deciding which will ultimately count in the final vote total. Right now, the candidates are separated by just 29 votes.

Death of incoming House member means another vacancy on Congress s opening day Print this article
The death of Rep.-elect Luke Letlow means there will be two open House seats when the new Congress convenes on Sunday, with Democrats already trying to navigate how to pass legislation with their narrowest majority in decades.
Letlow, a Louisiana Republican, died Tuesday after contracting COVID-19 earlier this month. Letlow was 41 and is survived by his wife, Julia Barnhill Letlow, and two children.
Letlow won a Dec. 5 runoff in Louisiana s 5th Congressional District, a Republican stronghold encompassing rural northeastern Louisiana, central Louisiana, and some parishes in southwestern Louisiana. Republican Rep. Ralph Abraham is retiring from the seat after six years in office. Letlow was a chief of staff to Abraham and also worked for former Gov. Bobby Jindal.

ITHACA, N.Y. (WHCU) – Claudia Tenney’s camp says she’s ahead of Democratic Incumbent Anthony Brindisi during continued recanvassing in the 22nd Congressional District Race.
Tenney’s spokesman reports the Republican challenger with a lead of roughly 30 votes. Syracuse.com says Oneida County officials have been reviewing 1,800 affidavit ballots during the last week. However, the race isn’t over just yet as State Supreme Court Judge Scott Delconte still needs to rule on several thousand affidavit and absentee ballots.
That review is set to begin virtually January 4th. Tags:
