Nassau’s Closing Election Tallies
The final tallies for Nassau’s too-close-to-call Nov. 3 elections are finally in, yet the results are still unofficial until certified by the county Board of Elections. Here are the figures as they stand at the end of the paper ballot count’s final day on Nov. 30:
Republican Legis. Ed Mangano leads incumbent Democratic County Executive Tom Suozzi by 386 votes.
Mangano Leads Suozzi At End Of Recount
Nassau Republican Legis. Ed Mangano leads incumbent Democratic County Executive Tom Suozzi by 377 votes at the end of a historic recount for Nassau’s top-elected position, according to the final, unofficial tally figures from the county Board of Elections.
The closing numbers: Mangano, 122,471; Suozzi, 122,094.
Now the battle goes to the courts, where New York State Supreme Court Justice Edward McCarty will decide about 500 ballots that had been challenged during the process. Board of Elections officials would then certify a winner.
Mangano-Suozzi Race Update
Nassau Republican Legis. Ed Mangano’s lead against Democratic Nassau County Executive Tom Suozzi has narrowed to just 122 votes following the end of counting on Nov. 23, according to the latest ballot figures from the county Board of Elections. The latest swing reflects ballots counted from New York State Assembly District 13, known as a Democratic stronghold. That district includes Plainview, Woodbury, Old Bethpage and Glen Cove, where Suozzi served consecutive terms as mayor and his cousin recently won re-election as such. It’s also Suozzi’s hometown.
Margin Tightens In Mangano-Suozzi Race
The skintight race for the next Nassau County Executive got a little tighter over the weekend.
Republican Legis. Ed Mangano’s lead over Democratic incumbent Tom Suozzi has tightened to 353 votes, with about half the outstanding 8,000 paper ballots still yet-to-be counted, according to the latest ballot figures from the county Board of Elections. Those updated numbers reflect the ballot tally at the end of counting on Saturday, Nov. 21. Mangano led Suozzi by 554 votes following the count on Nov. 16.
