Southampton supervisor race still too close to call
November 7, 2007 by Carl Corry
On the morning after Election Night, the hard-fought race for Southampton Town supervisor is still too close to call.
From News12.com:
Incumbent Patrick ‘Skip’ Heaney said a number of factors complicated the outcome. One of those factors is the 500-700 absentee ballots that still need to be counted, according to Heaney.
“Even if I was going to consider a concession speech, I wouldn’t know who to concede to,” Heaney said.
The incumbent supervisor said he’ll be part of the upcoming process for determining a winner. No matter what happens, Heaney said he is grateful for his party’s support and proud of the fact he stood for his record and not promises.
With all precincts reporting, Republican Linda Kabot has 33 percent of the vote, James Henry (D, WF) has 32 percent of the vote and Heaney has 29 percent. Alexander Gregor (I) trails far behind with 6 percent of the vote.
