Buerkle Postelection Fund

Help Ann Marie Buerkle get fair treatment in the absentee and military ballot vote count by supporting her postelection fund.

With Buerkle about 700 votes ahead with the full machine count in, national Democrats have already dispatched lawyers from D.C., and incumbent Dan Maffei is soliciting dollars for an even bigger attorney armada.

Support Ann Marie!

Analysis of how Ann Marie pulled it off appeared in today's Syracuse Post-Standard.   Winning Monroe County, it says, was key.

In other New York election news, in Congressional District 1 (eastern Long Island) Republican Randy Altschuler has pulled ahead of incumbent Democrat Tim Bishop by 392 votes.   As with the Buerkle-Maffei race, it now comes down to the absentee and military ballots.
