Democrat Elections Comissioner Dustin Czarny says in the 24th Congressional District, Dana Balter has picked up nearly 7,500 votes so far, but to catch Republican incumbent John Katko, she would need nearly 48,000.
One race has flipped due to the absentees, and that’s the 127th Assembly District race. Czarny says Democrat Al Stirpe now has a 600-vote lead over Republican Mark Venesky after trailing behind by about 1,000 votes on Election Night.
