I actually live in the Oppenheimer-Cohen district. Oppenheimer had all kinds of signs which had "SUZI" on it instead of her last name. Both seems to have avoided party labels and Cohen emphised his endorcement from Mike Bloomberg and NY Times. Oppenheimer not pushing a partisan campaign in a year where Palidino's brand was a drag was a mistake. Cohen was able to leverge his social moderation (with Bloomberg and NY Times endorcement) as well as the tax issue (housing prices are going down in the Scarsdale area but real estate taxes in absolute terms is going up plus possible increases in state income taxes) in high income Scarsdale area to lead to a possible upset.
Is there any state where gerrymandering is important, that the Dems totally control? Did the GOP win back the NY senate? Apparently, the GOP probably did take back the NY state senate.
Maybe, Torie. We don't know for sure. The Westchester County Board of Elections is so incompetent that they are only reporting 75% of the county's vote right now. They show the Democrat leading by 180 with 80% in. The AP has a tally supposedly showing the Republican in that race up by 2300 with 81% in.
