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

Hudson Valley Republicans lost to Trump. We need a new path | Opinion

At about 11:30 p.m. on Election Night, I was perched on a high piece of ground near the loading dock of the Westchester County Board of Election’s Ardsley warehouse. I had a clear line of sight down the long entrance into the parking lot. I was expecting to see BOE vans delivering the controversial paper ballots that voters had been unable to scan into voting machines across Westchester County for most of Election Day. We were told the vans would have police escorts. Then a phalanx of police vehicles eased to the left off Saw Mill River Road onto the long driveway up to the warehouse. I identified Eastchester and Bedford as they passed by. They were transporting the provisional ballots themselves. They were driving slowly, no sirens, muted emergency lights. It looked exactly like a funeral procession and in many ways it might be. Republicans across the Hudson Valley and the nation were drowned in the blue wave that swept them away on Nov. 3. Who buried New York Republicans? President Donald Trump Their opponents are taking credit, but the evidence shows the cause is President Donald Trump.

Wayne Council Cuts Ratzer Road Project to 46 Homes From Earlier 71-Unit Plan

933–965 Ratzer Rd. — Approximate Site of Proposed 46-Home Zone. Wayne Township's governing body voted 7–2 to introduce an ordinance creating an overlay zone that would allow up to 46 homes on a long-contested Ratzer Road property, with two council members, Al Sadowski and Joseph Scuralli, casting the dissenting votes. The move scales back a far denser concept that had been on the table for the site, and it comes with strings attached: any homes actually built would need to meet a 20% affordable-housing requirement, and the project still faces Planning Board review before a shovel goes into the ground.
