Yes but he's suddenly become hard of hearing, apparently.

Murphy leads by 365.


Murphy 79, 951
Tedisco 79, 586


Essex and Warren county updates.

I think that if Tedisco drags this out it only hurts him in the long run (if he has intentions of running in '10).

He is just pathetic. It is time for him to move on.

He has NO CHANCE of winning. Give it up now. Why are Republicans wasting money on this?

He's not wasting money. These ballots have not been counted yet. Don't you agree that all ballots should be counted?

well i think all ballots should be counted its pretty obvious at this point of the end result and tedisco is fighting for counting less ballots rather than more.

Well, he should concede. That doesn't mean the rest of the ballots don't get counted. They counted the rest of the ballots in the Presidential election for over a month afterward even though McCain had the grace to concede when it was clear he'd lost.

No, they shouldn't count all the ballots (the more challenges, the better). They should also declare Tedisco the winner.

(Isn't that what he's asking the court to do?)

One could argue that no Presidential candidate should ever concede until the Electoral College votes and the votes are counted.

You can always withdraw your concession if something unexpected happens... it's been done before.

Conceding, for Tedisco, would just be a sportsmanlike thing to do and signal that he's not intending to issue legal delays if things unfold how he expects them to.

Gore took back his November concession and dropped out in December instead, if i'm right.

Oh I absolutely agree. But to say that he is wasting money making these ballots get counted is just ludicrous.

That's not what ucscgaldamez is saying. The waste of money is on the court cases, and that is a waste of money. He doesn't need to be filing suits to make the votes be counted. They're always counted.

Isn't he challenging the majority of the votes that haven't been counted yet?

yea, I don't think he wants ALL the ballots counted. He obviously wants the ballots that went for him to be counted.

Tedisco has abandoned hope of winning but wants the judge to make a ruling on residency issues for future races.

About 6300 of 6800 absentee ballots are now counted.

Murphy has won them 54-46.

Tedisco would need to win the rest with more than 90% to win.
