Voters without a party now outnumber Republicans on Blakeman’s Nassau County home turf

There are now more registered voters without a party than there are Republicans in Nassau County, the home turf of failed gubernatorial candidate Bruce Blakeman, according to newly released data. Non-affiliated voters now outnumber Republicans 314,000-307,000, according to active enrollment data that was released in early November just before GOP pick Blakeman was shellacked in his bid to unseat Gov. Kathy Hochul, a Democrat who carried Nassau. The numbers reflect longstanding statewide numbers, as voters without a party have already outnumbered registered Republicans for several years. Non-affiliated voters don’t include members of minor political parties including the Conservative and Working Families parties.

NY Republican claims ‘stolen’ election after blue wave, local vote machine chaos

The only Republican on the Westchester County Board of Legislators is refusing to concede to a Democrat in his bid for reelection — claiming the election was “stolen” from him because of local vote machine chaos . County Legislator James Nolan made the wild statement as he trailed Democratic challenger Kisha D. Skipper by 246 votes in his reelection bid, according to unofficial results from the Westchester County Board of Elections. Board of Legislators candidate James Nolan claims the election was stolen from him in a Facebook photo post. Facebook/James Nolan Nolan, who represents portions of Yonkers, Bronxville, and Eastchester, was in position to lose his seat after days of ballot counting following a widespread programming glitch on Election Day in Westchester County that saw voting machines unable to scan paper ballots. The race was already ensnared in controversy when Skipper was handcuffed and detained by cops after a restroom brawl with Nolan’s mother at a candidates’ forum in Yonkers last month. “Following a massive countywide voting machine shutdown on Election Day, I have serious concerns about what took place, and the timing of these failures raises questions that demand answers,” Nolan said in a statement after ballots were counted
