Just watched Kathleen Rice's victory speech. Dillon has been a LONG entrenched incumbent and this race suprises even me. A bit of Suozzi coatails here most likley
Could have seen a Dem increase to 11-8 in gainging a seat, but John Ciotti was able to pull of a victory over Dem Ali Mirza (early returns showed Mirza ahead) All incumebtns in the Nassau leg won
Other than the DA race most of the big news on Long Island came from Patrick & mine neighboring county in Suffolk. GOP had an 11-7 majorits in the Suffolk Leg, its now 10-8 Dem, also took control in the town of Brookhaven winning the Supervisor & town board majority in HEAVILY Republican Brookhaven, the heart of Suffolk's GOP which has neem hit hard by scandlals which has earned themselves the "Crookhaven" name
Naturally this is very disappointing, but my real anger is focused at the Sheriff's race. The challenger who is the president of the union won. How can you let the president of the union be the person in charge of overtime and salaries? It's a major conflict of interest.
