| Special election in NY-20 razor close |
Democrat Scott Murphy has opened up a two-digit lead (as measured in votes, not percentage!) after seeing Republican Jim Tedisco take an even more narrow
advantage last week in the special election in New York's CD-20. Last Monday, Tedisco held the lead by 17 votes with several thousand absentee votes yet to be tabulated.
Today, the margin favors Murphy by 25 votes. There are still a couple thousand votes to count, so either man can still win. The New York State Board of Elections' home page posts
a new total sometime after the close of counting each day. I'll keep a link to the daily count on Election Projection's
home page.
If Tedisco eaks ahead in the end to claim a victory, it would give the GOP 179 seats in the House, 77 seats less than the Democrats. It would also provide a glimmer of positive light
to a party lost in electoral darkness over the last 2 1/2 years. At a minimum, Tedisco's win would represent a takeover in a formerly-Republican district recently trending
toward the Democrats. Republicans, of course, hope Tedisco will prevail and that his victory will signal a larger change - that the blue wave of 2006 and 2008 is at long last
subsiding. On the other hand, should Murphy hold on and win, Democrats will breathe a sigh of relief that this strong Republican challenge yielded yet another special election Democratic
triumph.
