The last undecided House race in the U.S. took a new twist Tuesday morning, as State Supreme Court Judge Scott DelConte ordered election officials in the eight-county 22nd District of New York to recount some of the 60,000 absentee ballots.


In so doing, DelConte declined the request of former Republican Rep. Claudia Tenney to certify her as the winner by 12 votes out of more than 318,000 cast — the last official count by the Boards of Canvassers in the district’s eight counties.


DelConte’s 20-page order also dismissed the call by Democrat Rep. Anthony Brindisi’s legal team for a targeted recount in certain counties favorable to him.


“None of the lawyers here want to win a lawsuit — they want to win an election,” the judge snapped during a virtual hearing on Monday.


In confirming the 12-vote lead of Tenney’s that the final count showed, DelConte ordered the county canvassers to recheck counting errors and review ballots that both campaigns disputed.



Should it prove impossible to correct counting errors, DelConte ruled, the county officials must then conduct a manual count of the ballots in question.


The judge’s ruling came as more bizarre developments popped up in the race that doesn’t seem to end.


In issuing his ruling, for example, Judge DelConte revealed at least twelve more ballots were discovered in Chenango County — a week after it was revealed there were 55 unopened mail-in ballots suddenly discovered in the same county.


A letter to the court revealed that an employee of the Oneida County Board of Elections tested positive for coronavirus and that all employees might be exposed.


This would no doubt stretch out the time before a final count of the race could be completed and a winner certified.

Not mentioned in this article: those 12 ballots that were found, were found in a drawer. 5 weeks after the election.

We're getting some real repeats of 2018 shenanigans. How much do you want to bet some more House races will be overturned, likely in Dem favor, the weeks to come due to "found" ballots?

Why did you choose literally the worst, most bias source possible? Oh that's right it panders to your narrative.

This is someone who is actually or has the mentality of a 5 year old would do so that they won't get in trouble for stealing from mommy and daddy. Are politicians just that retarded now-a-days?
 
One of my favorite cows actually lives in this district and has been REEEEEing about a Tenny victory and bragging about getting a canned response from the democratic politician. I really hope Tenny wins just for the salt.
 
Um, someone should let this judge know that recounts undermine our democracy and we should accept all results without questioning them.

Congratulations to Claudia Tenney, and shame on everyone else for pushing insane conspiracy theories.
 
Newsmax might not be a great source, but NY-22 is a shitshow. I've been following post-election at DKE and they've been pretty universal in criticizing the glacial pace of counting in New York state and especially some of the amateur hour shit that has gone on in this race. (Notably one county marked some ballots, I think late arriving ones, with a sticky note which predictably fell right off, necessitating a large portion of this recount.)
 
You literally source conspiracy sites and the Blaze. I am not a fan of Newsmax, but come on.
I posted 1 blaze article literally ever, I shat on it for being inaccurately framed and being anti-American? The blaze also isn't a conspiracy site, just a generic ultra right wing rag. Come on, don't make up shit about me in your head in some gay attempt to feign having middle ground.
You're still defending Newsmax which says all anybody needs to know about your credibility.

Nothing in this specific article is overly biased one way or another. Stop being a faggot.
