I personally think that Hull would be the better choice for Mayor. But if he's not, ya gotta lick your wounds and call it a day. It was a hell of a race no matter who wins. However, I, as a taxpayer, and a concerned citizen, would support and encourage a full recount. It is too close and there were obvious issues. The city is soooo divided that Gary MaCarthy's mayorship will always bein question and not legitimized by 50% of the electorate. |

Now the nayboobs have to eat their words and make excuses ... Roger Hull was supposed to win in a landslide -- they said. Mayor McCarthy didn't have ANY support -- they said. Obviously, the chuckle-headed nayboobs were wrong -- as usual. |

McCarthy was supposed to win by 25% according to the Gazetto moron here. The DEM machine would sweep again. No one would vote for the Alliance Party. The Alliance party beat all three union parties COMBINED. A thousand votes off the DEM column. Vince Riggi finished second while King and the cricket guy fight over a crying towel. No reason for a recount now that the two idiots have pronounced a winner. |

To paraphrase the great Ronald Reagan campaign ad from 1984 ---- It is morning in Schenectady again ... Mayor McCarthy and the Democratic team is hard at work moving the city forward to greater prosperity. |

You mean greater taxation? First you need prosperity then greater prosperity. No one who owes any City property agrees with you. 33% of DEMS wisely abandoned your horrible candidate. You can't tax your way out of a hole. |

We can throw the nayboobs into the hole -- and cover it over with dirt. |

At any rate, it was pretty surprising to me that it was that close. Wonder how many votes the PILOT issue cost Roger Hull - may well have been the difference. |

No need for a recount -- Since the margin didn't change with all of the challenges .. I highly doubt that Judge Reilly will rule to have a recount. It would just be a waste of time and taxpayer money. |
