State Legislature Special Election Megathread v2

[MaxQue]

I'm told that the Attleboro numbers are final: Hawkins holds the seat for the Democrats, 3,927-3,633.

What was the swing?

None, the incumbent Democrat was unopposed in 2016.

Looks like a lot of New Yorkers were motivated to not vote.  I guess the attitude was it really did not matter.

NY also has some of the most restrictive voting laws in America. Worse than any red state I can think of

Which is why real progressives need to make everything so the fossils establishment and Cuomo are all primaried out.

Detailed Results:
June Speakman (Democrat) 862 votes (39.8%, -24.2)
William Hunt Jr. (Libertarian) 615 votes (28.4%, -6.9)
Kenneth Marshall (Independent) 511 votes (23.6%)
James McCanna III (Independent) 176 votes (8.1%)

Kenneth Marshall was the incumbent (he was the representative between 2012 and 2018, but as the winner of 2018 forfeited the election due to a scandal, he was allowed to stay until the election. He was elected as a Democrat, but left party last year claiming the party was overrun by Progressives.)

Here are the partisan affiliations of candidates in MS tonight:

HD 32 has Solomon Osbourne (Democrat) and Troy D. Brown (Independent, ran as an Indy in 2011). I have no idea about the third guy, a bunch of googling implies he didn’t even qualify for the ballot.

All the HD 71 candidates are confirmed Democrats.

All the HD 101 candidates are Republicans (Even Jim Hood only got 26% in this seat, after all).

Troy D. Brown was the Democrat candidate against Trent Lott in 2000.
