The newly discovered batch of unc 55 unusual ballots in a rural village in New York County is likely to change the outcome of the so-called congressional race.

Chenango County Attorney Lan Lan Gord on Tuesday briefed Supreme Court Justice Scott Delconte on the findings.

Of the 55 ballots, 11 appear to be from unregistered voters.

The Brindisi-Tenny contest has become a spectacle, with Republicans jumping to nearly 29,000 votes on election night – just to see if the lead disappears when the mail-in ballot is counted.

Then last week, Brindisi appeared to take a double-digit lead, but the two counties said they lost their small advantage over the weekend after making tabulation mistakes.
