“#NY congressional race in doubt after uncounted ballots found<\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

\n

A newly discovered batch of 55 uncounted ballots in a rural upstate New York county has the potential to alter the outcome of a yet-to-be-called congressional race.<\/p>\n

The ballots from Chenango County were cast during the state\u2019s early voting period within the 22nd Congressional District \u2014 home to the ultra-tight race between Democratic Rep. Anthony Brindisi and his Republican opponent Claudia Tenney.<\/p>\n

As of Monday \u2014 which was supposed to have been the final day for election officials to report vote totals in the district \u2014 Tenney led the freshman Democrat by a razor-thin 12-vote margin.<\/p>\n

Chenango County Attorney Alan Gordon informed Supreme Court Justice Scott DelConte of the findings on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

\u201cThose ballots were app<\/a>arently mislaid and never counted,\u201d Gordon wrote.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have advised our Board of Elections to not open any of those ballots and to secure them in their offices,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Of the 55 ballots, 11 appear to be from unregistered voters.<\/p>\n

The remaining 44 could reverse Tenney\u2019s lead, but DelConte must still rule on over 2,000 other disputed absentee and affidavit ballots in the race.<\/p>\n

The Brindisi-Tenney contest has been a seesawing affair, with the Republican jumping to a nearly 29,000 vote lead on election night \u2014 only to see that lead disappear as mail-in ballots were counted.<\/p>\n

Then last week, Brindisi appeared to grab a double-digit lead, but his small advantage was wiped out over the weekend after two counties said they had made tabulation errors.<\/p>\n
