Murphy lead jumps to 365 in NY-20

Democrat Scott Murphy’s lead over Republican Jim Tedisco in the upstate New York special election has grown to 365 votes.

PolitickerNY quotes the Warren County Democratic Party Chairman saying Murphy’s gains came in his county. The new tally is a reflection of 250 ballots that had been set aside but were counted in the last two days.

And as Taegan Goddard caught, GOP strategist Mike Murphy is the latest Republican to say Murphy will win the seat in this tweet.
