Apparently, Republican Ann Marie Buerkle's lead has widened to 567 votes over Democratic incumbent Dan Maffei and it is beginning to look grim for Maffei. The matter will come to a head Tuesday before the court in Syracuse when their lawyers duke it out over 240 challenged votes. After this, Maffei may ask for a recount, but it is unclear whether he will.
Even with the 240 challenged votes, Maffei can't pull this off. We can only hope he concedes and doesn't drag things on with a needless recount. When he concedes, it will put the Republicans at plus 62 with five outstanding races still yet to be determined.
