Spano maintains lead over Stewart-Cousins in 35th District

State Sen. Nicholas Spano carried a 153-vote lead over his opponent, Westchester County Legislator Andrea Stewart-Cousins, at the end of the sixth day of ballot counting yesterday in the 35th Senate District.

The lead was nine votes lower than the previous day, and the race remained too close to call.

Since the count began a week ago, election workers have finished tallying voting machines and more than two-thirds of the absentee ballots. Another 1,561 absentee and 3,491 affidavit ballots remain to be counted.

Spano, a Yonkers Republican, had a 144-vote lead in absentee ballots, in addition to a nine-vote lead on voting machines, a figure that was recently revised. The initial voting machine count gave Spano a 54,120-to-52,446 lead over Democrat Stewart-Cousins, also from Yonkers.

Campaign officials for both sides said the count would probably continue at least until the end of next week.

I'm saying THE MACHINE COUNT difference is now 9 votes. They are reporting the numbers for each type of voting.

6. The total drop in Spano's lead is close to 1,500 in Machine counts alone

They didn't tell you that, but it is right there in the numbers.

Old lead = 1,600
New lead = 150

UPDATE: The Democrat now LEADS in Machine Votes by 263 Votes!!

With most machines recounted, Spano trails Democrat
November 14, 2004

WHITE PLAINS, N.Y. Andrea Stewart-Cousins, the Westchester County legislator who challenged incumbent state Senator Nicholas Spano, took a lead today as election workers double-checked voting machines in the 35th Senate District.

Jonathan Rosen, director of the state Democrats' campaign committee, says Stewart-Cousins was up by 263 machine votes in late afternoon.

That was more than enough to offset a Spano lead of about a dozen votes in early counting of absentee ballots.

A week earlier, the unofficial election night tally had her behind by 16-hundred-and-74 votes.

That means that it was an almost 2000 vote swing! Is this evidence?


What more do you want?

Nearly 100,000 vote race. 2000 votes where wrong in machines, apparently each one. That is a full 2% difference. If the same thing happened in Ohio, a recount would make Kerry the winner.

Cool!!!! I hope that stays true with the end results too!

Amazing. I'm betting Kerry can get the votes - when recounts take place, we just need to prove the fraud.
