New York primary resultsThe 2010 New York primary election results are all in now. There are a few minor surprises, and some close races that have been determined. We now know who will be running for each party in the November 2nd New York election.

The New York Primary Election results are as follows:

In the primary election for the New York Senate (Special Edition), Incumbent Kirsten Gillibrand defeated Gail Goode 76% to 24% for the democrats. On the republican side, Joseph DioGuardi inched out a victory with 42% of the votes over David Malpass (38%) for the republicans.

For the other senate seat which has been held by democrat Charles E. Schumer, for 12 years, Schumer won the primary uncontested. On the republican side, where the party tries to take the Senate seat back after 12 years, Jay Townsend defeated Gary Berntsen with 56% of the votes.

In the NY primary for state Governor, the election saw Andrew Cuomo win for the democrats, uncontested. For the republicans, Carl Paladino defeated Rick Lazio with 62% of the votes. The winner in the November 2nd election will take the seat currently held by democrat David A. Paterson.

Because Andrew Cuomo is running for Governor of New York, his Attorney General seat was up for election. Only the democrats had a primary for the seat, and Eric Schneiderman defeated Kathleen M. Rice, Sean Coffey, Richard Brodsky, and Eric Dinallo with 34% of the votes.

    It is impossible 2 full days after the primary to determine the results of the neck and neck primary race in NY-17th Congressional district between ANTHONY MELE and YORK KLEINHANDLER. The results seem not to be available anywhere. This well-gerrymandered district covers parts of Rockland, Westchester and Bronx counties. Rockland has their results posted on their website. Westchester’s posted results show only results after 76% of the vote was tallied, but no final (even if unnoficial) tally. The Bronx results are nowhere to be found. Even the candidates don’t know. The biggest news to me is that it’s not news. A US Congressional primary race is still undecided 2 days later in a low turnout when all other races seem to be known —AND NO NEWS COVERAGE. What’s that about?

    Yes, Sol, that’s the question a bunch of us who worked in the campaign of one of these candidates are also asking ourselves, as the “final” votes,
    apparently now only from Westchester, are still being counted, and the tally is coming in in dribs and drabs. From what I hear the notorious NY 23rd is ALSO still undecided. In an abysmally LOW turnout (maybe only 20% of registered Republicans) it makes no sense. They seem to have stopped and started a number of times in this vote count. Could the problems have something to do with the logistics of this highly gerrymandered districts, with “parts”
    of a number of municipalities in THREE different counties? Or are they just being ‘extra careful’ , once it was determined this would be an extremely close race? Could there be a whiff of voter fraud detected somewhere? What is going on? Any thoughts on this at 2:57 Friday afternoon?
