Final Election Results

The Board of Elections recently released the final results from the November 4 election. It turns out that 298 of the 378 registered voters in the First Ward came out to vote--almost 79 percent! Good for us!

As it happens, however, there were not a hundred or so First Ward voters who came to the polls to cast their ballot only in the Congressional race. The preliminary tallies for that race were wrong.

Now that the vote has been recanvassed and all the absentee and affidavit ballots have been counted, here's how the First Ward voted:

President/Vice President
Obama/Biden 227
McCain/Palin 60
McKinney/Clemente 2
Barr/Root 1
Nader/Gonzales 2

U.S. Congress
Gillibrand 234
Treadwell 39

State Senate
Dow 172
Saland 82

State Assembly
Rubin 155
Molinaro 90

City Judge
Koweek 154
Colwell 34
Herman 29
Leaman 63
