WPCNR CAMPAIGN 2020. By John F. Bailey. November 9, 2020:

WPCNR reached out to the Robert Astorino campaign to get the handle on how many absentee votes have yet to be counted in the Robert Astorino-Peter Harckham race. When the unofficial election night results were last posted, Mr. Harckham led Mr. Astorino 45,881 votes to 42,196, a 3,685 vote margin.

Monday morning, William F. O’Reilly, of The November Group, spokesman for the Astorino campaign, issued this statement:

“There are around 32,000 ballots in for the Astorino-Harckham race. The count should begin later this week, but it may not be until next week that we get an answer.  “

Sunday, Mr. O’Reilly expressed confidence that Mr. Astorino would win the Absentee Ballot vote, because, O’Reilly said Mr. Astorino was ahead in Absentee balloting by 9,ooo votes.
