Hoffman not giving-up any more…

Hoffman not giving-up any more on his special election race for New York's 23rd Congressional District. Jordan Fabian writes on TheHill.com, “Conservative Party candidate Doug Hoffman has ‘unconceded’ in New York's special House election.”

Hoffman is “unconceding” after the vote count shrunk to only to 3,026 votes, on election night the difference was 5,335 votes between Hoffman and Democrat Bill Owens.

The “unconceding” is happening because there are more than 10,000 absentee ballots that have not yet been counted. Hoffman would have to take more than 65 percent of the absentee ballots to win.
