Short on the recount in the 34th. I had heard (as of yesterday) that Reyna had gained 20 or so votes off of the paper ballots.

Pathetic.

Real Reform Brooklyn takes stock of the Levin campaign:

You are to be personally credited with running an honorable campaign. You never went negative. You never took a shot below the belt.

Very true. Also, some very good suggestions for Councilmember Levin (I particularly like #1 – don’t move out of Greenpoint).

And I hope RealReformBrooklyn is not going to go away now that the primary is over.

Bushwick’s farmers’ market continues to grow.

Support it.

Some other races of note:

In the 35th, Letitia James wins in a walk – 81% – as I thought.

In the 45th, Kendall Stewart is out, Jumaane Williams is in.

In the 1st, Margaret Chin upends Alan Gerson by 10 points.

In the 3rd, Chris Quinn is struggling to break 50% with 82% counted. Interesting.

In the 14th, Maria Baez is out, which should give her more time not to show up.

Overall, half of the council races will be won by candidates who got less than 50% of the vote. Tish James and Rosie Mendez win in the biggest landslides (each over 81%). Two council races will be won with only about 25% of the popular vote.

In the race for Comptroller, Liu is still not cracking 40% – 38% with 99% of votes counted. Yassky is just over 30%.

In the race for Public Advocate, its definitely a runoff – de Blasio has 33%, Green has 31%.

With over 99% of the votes counted, Steve Levin has 34% of the vote. Jo Anne Simon is next with 20%. Isaac Abraham and Evan Thies are in a very close race for third (right now, Isaac is ahead by 29 votes).

Congratulations, Steve.

WNYC says that Lander is leading Skaller, 41% to 25%, with over 75% of precincts reporting. Congratulations, Brad.
