USA Today:
The hand counts and courtroom squabbles may be dragging on in the New York District 20 race, but at least one prominent Republican says the election is done and won -- for the Democrats.

Tedisco didn't even live in the district!
Good riddance, Tedisco!
Hurray for Murphy!!!
I live in upstate New York(though thankfully not congressional district 20)and I can tell you this story is getting zero media coverage locally.I learn more about this from HuffPost than I ever do from watching local news or reading the papers.
The Rethugs are ruthless and pathetic. Seat Scott Murphy and Seat Senator Franken now!!!!!!
I heard Murphy by 365 and climbing this AM on NPR. Now of course NPR is communist ... or fascist. I forget. But anyway, that's what they said.
Wasn't it just last week that Tadisco filed a suit to declare him the winner regardless of the vote count?
When do they start filing appeals? They can't win, so they've got to try to keep the Dems from getting anything done.
Bloody hypocrites.
"These people will do anything to get power".
Republicans are truly pathetic..

2010 should be a swift shift to the LEFT -- sweet, simple and speedy...h
What they don't seem to realize is that this is a republican dominated precinct! They should have won this hands down rather than trying to figure out a way to sneak a win by through the courts!
What no recounts, chads, absentees, etc.? An election actually concluded in the Land of the Brave and the Home of the Free. Does it strike anyone that the "Shining Ligtht on the Hill" has trouble running elections?
uh-huh!
I guess being the ex-NRCC chair means he hasn't gotten the new "strategy" memo.
I thought this is the same sea in NY Mr. Steele declared was going to be the beginning of Republican come back!. Dems has won it AGAIN !..what happen Mr. Steele?
they have memos?
no they have memes.
Republicans:
Snatching Defeat From the Jaws of Victory Since 2008
actually since 2006
Republicans are the most anti-democratic party I have ever seen, or read about, in America.
and not very representative (the definition of lower-case "r" repubicanism).
Oops! spelling error: the term should be republicanism
