Is the Democrat’s majority in the New York Senate slipping away? This new development certainly helps Republicans.
From the Wall Street Journal:
The Buffalo News reports that state Sen. Antoine Thompson has conceded defeat in a race that’s one of several involving recounts that will decide which party controls New York’s Senate.
The Democrat’s decision means Republican Mark J. Grisanti will represent the 60th state Senate District in Buffalo beginning in January.
Two other recounts continue.
Democrats won a 32-30 majority two years ago after decades of Republican rule.
