Election aftermath

Here are the results from yesterdays’ elections in the few races I’ve been following:

A side effect of Bob Turner’s victory is that now the Democrats have to pick another Congressional seat to give up.  New York is slated to lose two Congressional seats next year due to redistricting.  It was thought that one would be an upstate Republican-held seat and one would be a downstate Democrat-held seat, District 9.  With Turner’s win, the Democrats will have to pick another incumbent district for elimination.  Carolyn McCarthy’s seat in District 4 was mentioned in the past.

One thought on “Election aftermath

  1. Tell Captain Obama that Weprin’s gone, and tell him what he can do with his hammer, and his sickle too.

    “Take this hammer, take it to the captain
    Take this hammer, take it to the captain
    Take this hammer, take it to the captain
    Tell him I’m gone, buddy, you can tell him I’m gone”
