Judge orders New York district to be certified for Republican in last unresolved congressional race of 2020
A New York judge ordered the State Board of Elections to certify Republican Claudia Tenney as the winner in New York’s 22nd Congressional District Friday, bringing the last unresolved race of the 2020 election closer to a final resolution.
The ruling comes after months of disputes over the vote count and it puts Tenney, who represented the district from 2017 to 2019, 109 votes ahead of Democrat Anthony Brindisi, who defeated Tenney in 2018.
“The State Board will certify the results as directed” by the judge, John Conklin, the New York State Board of Elections director of public information, told CNN on Friday. “That could be as early as Monday.”
A team of University of Florida mechanical and aerospace engineering students, professors and researchers has been awarded a $12.5 million NASA contract to test and build a space exploration device over the next four years.
The group is creating a charge management system for the LISA space project, a cutting-edge technology system designed to trail behind the Earth as it orbits the sun and intercept gravitational waves.
Those measurements can then be interpreted by scientists to determine what caused the waves, like the collision of two black holes, for example, and help discover otherwise unseen areas of space, regardless of how many light years away the events occurred, said John Conklin, project director.

The New York Republican Party and an Upstate congresswoman are waging an aggressive fundraising campaign for Claudia Tenney that questions the integrity of her undecided election against Rep. Anthony Brindisi.
A series of emails to potential donors from state GOP Chairman Nick Langworthy and Rep. Elise Stefanik suggest that Brindisi and Democrats are trying to win the election by cheating. That effort combined with Tenney’s fundraising netted her about $350,000 to pay for a possible recount, according to her campaign.
