3. Damn! According to the local news her opponent already declared himself the winner:

State Sen. Dan Stec, R-Queensbury, declared himself as the winner of the 2022 45th Senate District race with only 154 of 224 Senate districts reporting totals as of 11 p.m. Tuesday.

He delivered a victory speech for his unofficial win at The Queensbury Hotel in Glens Falls and had roughly 52% of the vote as of press time.

In speaking to supporters, Stec said he believes the win represents the North Country rejecting the policies of Albany including high spending and denying the crime problem, which he said Democratic policies have helped create.

He predicted that some of those colleagues would be “packing their bags” by the end of the night.

Stec ran against Democratic challenger Jean Lapper, a certified public accountant and small business financial adviser from Queensbury. He was first elected state senator in 2020 and campaigned for providing stronger support for farmers, better broadband and cellphone service, and proposing initiatives to help the economy recover from the pandemic.

6. "Denying crime problem?"

Really?

Ummmm...it wasn't Dems who attempted a coup with a deadly insurrection attempt & refused to convict tfg twice.

I hope your friends beats this self-sanctimonious jerk & makes him eat his words!

Is absentee voting popular near you?

7. He said she's from Albany?? She's local - and has a real job.

When I worked for my former congressman (as did Jean), a lot of the retirees on my route had voted absentee. And this time they had early voting - but I don't know the stats on that. However, when I went to vote first thing today before I went to sleep, the parking lot was full and it wasn't crowded, but it was very busy!

[SheltieLover]

8. Well, I'm still hoping your friend wins!

🏄‍♀️🏄‍♂️

9. He's a qpuke, lips moving, it's a lie.

[Rhiannon12866]

10. This was on the front page of the local paper.

But you're right, he just declared himself the winner.

11. For gawd sake

Did you call & inform them they need to retract their lying crappy so-called reporting?

More qpuke projection.
