1. Good. No mayoral run off. R&K nt

[hrmjustin]

2. There is going to be a recount and the open the paper ballots on Monday.

3. I just hope this holds up.

Thanks for the info.

4. YW. I think that there will be pressure on Thompson to drop out.

5. de Blasio is just 1094 votes over 40%

That means that he cannot lose much more than that headway in the absentee and recount.

That's thin. It probably could go either way, depending on the breaks. I would hope that the absentees would break the way the live ballots broke, and the recount would validate those percentages.

But 1100-1200 votes isn't many out of about 650,000 total. (He'll have to increase that margin to maintain his percentage after the absentees -- that's just the math.)

Hope this helps those interested.

8. Turnout was not as bad as they thought.
