Apparently Della Pia swept every vote cast in Ithaca proper. It’s very rare for a candidate to win 100% of the vote in a batch of anything greater than about 30 votes. An 144 - 0 vote shows how toxic Rs are for these types of communities
144 seems way too low for the total number of votes in Ithaca proper. The
Tompkins County official results have (Della Pia first)
"City of Ithaca 1-1" 298 - 18
"City of Ithaca 1-2, 2-2" 285 - 21
"City of Ithaca 1-3" 283 - 20
"City of Ithaca 2-1, 2-3" 466 - 21
"City of Ithaca 2-4" 144 - 0
"City of Ithaca 3-1, 3-3, 4-1, 5-3" 157 - 7
"City of Ithaca 3-2" 397 - 17
"City of Ithaca 5-1, 5-2" 635 - 8
giving
2665 - 112 across the city as a whole. So the 144 - 0 is just for one precinct, which looks to be the downtown area.
The surrounding Town of Ithaca was
2626 - 196.
