Any thoughts on Maloney in NY-17?

About a 3,000 vote difference with most of the vote counted. No one has called it yet.

Unless there are absentee ballots and mail in to count.

It seems like they take forever to get those final few votes in.

3,000 difference is a lot better than he was doing even earlier in the night, so that's a good sign. If it were a lost cause, more places would have called it already.

I will say that I've seen enough to be really pissed at the courts in NY handicapping us Democrats by doing away with their gerrymandered map. It looks like it is really going to cost us. Blue states have to push their advantage the same way Republicans do theirs in red states and even purple states.
