On November 5, a New York state vote-tabulating error was discovered, which suggests that U.S. House member Timothy Bishop, a Democrat in the First District, may have lost his seat to the Republican nominee. See this story. Election night returns had said Bishop was winning with a margin of 3,000 votes, but now he is trailing by 400 votes. But 9,000 absentee votes in that district remain to be counted. Thanks to Mike Fellows for the link.
Close enough for government work?
Dang, just overkill now. Too bad it wasn’t for either the Colorado or Washington U.S. Senate seat.
Chalk up another victory for Wall St.
