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.

As of Monday β€” which was supposed to have been the final day for election officials to report vote totals in the district β€” Tenney led the freshman Democrat by a razor-thin 12-vote margin.

Chenango County Attorney Alan Gordon informed Supreme Court Justice Scott DelConte of the findings on Tuesday. β€œThose ballots were apparently mislaid and never counted,” Gordon wrote. β€œI have advised our Board of Elections to not open any of those ballots and to secure them in their offices,” he said. Of the 55 ballots, 11 appear to be from unregistered voters.

The Brindisi-Tenney contest has been a seesawing affair, with the Republican jumping to a nearly 29,000 vote lead on election night β€” only to see that lead disappear as mail-in ballots were counted. 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.

How are they still counting and finding "new" ballots on December 2nd?

The article doesn't even mention that the democrat judge in the lawsuit took the ballots that were spoiled for mismatched signatures (or something similar) and went through them himself, determining that several of them were valid and to be counted after all. Just enough to swing the votes to the dem.

Because they are not "counting", they are just cheating, frauding, manufacturing.

I bet all 55 are for Brindisi, as well.

This shit is exhausting.

Are there any examples this year of a Republican getting pushed past a Democrat thanks to a late batch of ballots appearing out of nowhere? Why does it always only benefit Dems?
