[...] was not supposed to be like this for Team Suozzi. Not now, not ever. But eight years after taking office, Long Island’s favorite political son [...]

Republican votes should be weighted higher because we are the ones paying Suozi’s high taxes

My son is active duty in the United States Navy, unable to be in town for the vote and yet, never received his absentee ballot. How many ballots are unaccounted for I wonder.
As far as Mr. Suozzi, you lost the respect of a lot of voters a long time ago. Maybe you should just concede defeat and at least your nickname “Tommy Tantrum” won’t follow you out the door.

UPDATE ON THOSE NUMBERS….The political future of Nassau County Executive Thomas Suozzi rests on as many as 12,000 votes yet to be counted, including an estimated 9,000 mail-in absentee ballots and as many as 3,000 affidavit ballots cast by those whose names were missing from voter rolls, Democratic officials said Wednesday.

The Democratic incumbent is ahead of Republican challenger Edward Mangano by 237 votes out of 245,537 that had been counted as of Wednesday morning. That means Suozzi’s victory rests on a margin of about a tenth of a percent.

“This is the classic race where everyone’s vote will count,” said Steven Schlesinger, a top Democratic Party attorney who sought a court order Tuesday that will lead to a recount.

correction on that sorry..60%-70% republican to 30%-40% Dem…absentee ballots

Absentee ballots in Nassau County usually run about 1500-2000. It is usually people who are out of town, seniors or military personel. It usually runs 60% republican to 40% Dem. By that formular repubs. would get 1,050 votes to the Dems 450 again this is just a estimate and only the election board knows. I’m sure this will take about 2 weeks to figure out….Good Luck Rob Zimmer

Tom,
You winning was a good thing. The fact that a man can run for such a prestigious position with some real bad moral convictions is not. These are real issues Tom, not political BS. A man fondled a woman while working as an AMT for the County and you want to look at the positive? Tom, grow up and get rid of sexual deviants. Do not protect them because they work on your campaign.

Tom

You changed views on gay marriage allmost cost you the election. I like many others could not vote for you this year because of your change. In trying to attract votes for gov. you allmost lost this election. you should remember you voted you in the first time.

Rob Walker that would be a horrible thing to post if it wasn’t true. It is also really negative and kicking a guy who just lost the race by 200 something votes. Think of the positive in life and remember who won the race. Thank you. Tom

As a matter of fact yes. Do some researchbefore you offer another human being to Hell. I wouldnt post it if it was not factual. Francis X Debobes, NC Paramedic, arrested….check it out. Than contact the Justiniano family from whom Mrs Mangano was related.

I hope the absentee ballots bury Souzzi.
The electorate have had enough of your lies and BS Thomas.
The 2.5% energy tax and your alliance with Charles Wang to destroy central Nassau and turn it into a urban city is what made the constituents who voted against you mad as hell.
At least the Republicans have the majority in the legislature again and hopefully some of the damage you’ve done (and are trying to do) to Nassau can be undone.
