It looks like there won’t be a special election in NY-29 after all. Governor Paterson, citing the cost of holding an election, appears unlikely to call for one, which means that the winner of this congressional race will be determined in November, along with all of the other races taking place this year. Republican Tom Reed is quite unhappy about this decision. Meanwhile, two of the remaining Democrat prospects in the race have left, continuing the long exodus. Assemblyman David Koon and Paterson aide Mary Wilmot have removed themselves from consideration. Democrats will supposedly be selecting a candidate over the weekend.
