A partial recount has been ordered of some ballots cast in New York's 22nd Congressional District contest between incumbent Democrat Anthony Brindisi and Republican challenger Claudia Tenney.
Claudia Tenney wants the vote in race for Congress certified at the numbers recorded on November 30 before 55 additional early voting ballots were discovered.
What started out as a 28,000 vote lead for Claudia Tenney over Rep. Anthony Brindisi after election night, is now almost a statistical tie. The counting of absentee ballots continued on Tuesday as Brindisi gained ground by a margin of better than 70-percent.
