District 22 has a winner but Hillary lawyer put in another stay
February 3, 2021
Seven out of the eight counties in New York’s 22nd Congressional District certified votes in the 2020 election. One district was stopped from doing so. District 22 is the race without end as Democrats try mightily to steal it.
Incumbent Democratic Rep. Anthony Brindisi gained only one vote after the last irrational demand. Republican challenger Claudia Tenney now leads by 121 votes instead of 122.
WKTV gave the rundown of the counties and how the vote went if you’re interested.
New York State Supreme Court Justice Scott DelConte stopped Oneida County from certifying its results, however. The Brindisi team put in another stay.

NY#22 still counting votes 50 days after the election, Dem leads 0.00004%
New York Congressional District Rep. Anthony Brindisi took a lead of fourteen votes over his Republican challenger Claudia Tenney, who held the lead all along. The next hearing will likely take place on January 4. Hundreds of votes still remain uncounted.
Three dead people can’t be counted, but there was confusion over it since they voted and then died. Under New York election law, an early ballot doesn’t count if the voter dies before the election.
“You need to be a registered voter to vote, and upon death, you cease to be registered,” Madison County Election Commissioner Laura Costello said.
