Election officials in New York City met secretly Wednesday to discuss the vote count debacle in the high-profile Democrat mayoral race, reports the New York Post.

New York City’s Board of Elections on Tuesday released an incorrect tally of votes in the race that showed a near-dead heat during an automatic runoff. But the count was revealed as a fiasco, with results showing that Eric Adams’ lead over Kathryn Garcia and Maya Wiley had significantly narrowed.

The board later disclosed it had accidentally included 135,000 sample ballots used to test the city’s new ranked-choice system with the group of actual ballots. It later scrapped those results. Adams on Wednesday announced that he had filed suit against the board.

Board of Elections President Fred Umane told the Post the meeting they had Wednesday wasn’t public, though state law requires all meetings of public bodies to be “open to the general public.”

Blair Horner, executive director of the New York Public Interest Research Group, said of the BOE, “They had a meeting, it should be public.”

“If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it’s a duck — and a meeting needs to be open no matter what you call it,” he said.

  1. Yes. I agree. The BOE in NYC is racist at it’s core. Trump should resign immediately. Radical black feminist, Maya Wiley, must be installed as our next Mayor! Anything less will/should bring riots to the streets of this Sanctuary City. All cops should be fired. We’ve got to enforce reparations. We’ve got to achieve racial justice once and for all.
