Leslie Danks Burke’s (D) campaign remains hopeful that she can win the race for the New York State Senate’s 58th district seat as the counting of mail-in ballots continues.
With thousands of mail-in ballots yet to be processed, neither elections for the 125th district in the New York State Assembly nor the 58th district of the State Senate have officially been called. However, Anne Kelles (D) is ahead in the State Assembly race and Tom O’Mara (R-N.Y.) is ahead in the State Senate race.
Rep. Tom Reed (R-N.Y.) held an event to clean up the Republican building, which had been marked with graffiti by counterprotesters.
For O’Mara, the difference between him and Danks Burke is not simply one of a generalized political philosophy. Rather, it’s an approach to government that he best sees fit for the Southern Tier.
Contenders for the New York State Senate’s seat for District 58 debated on Thursday night, discussing issues from police funding to fossil fuel divestment.
Leslie Danks Burke is challenging Republican incumbent Tom O’Mara (R-N.Y.) for New York’s 58th State Senate District seat.
