If all goes according to the schedule laid out by Justice Scott DelConte, voters in the district can expect to have a representative in Congress next week at the earliest.

“There’s no doubt in my mind where I’m going with this: every legal vote means every legal vote.”

It’s unclear just how many hundreds of challenge ballots there are, but with only 12 votes separating the candidates, the court’s rulings on them might determine the race’s outcome.
There are still a couple of thousand votes in the district that are disputed or were never counted by election officials in violation of state election law, as evident in the court’s decision.
“The role of the court, as I see it, is making sure everyone follows the law,” Justice Scott DelConte said during oral arguments Monday.

Both candidates said Tuesday that they are waiting on absentee ballots to be returned before declaring who won.

“It doesn’t make sense to close a clinic until you have some kind of a study done to determine what the needs are of that region.”
“I am humbled to have the support of the Republican voters across NY-22.”
