With his prospect of winning the 23rd Congressional District race now almost zero, Conservative Party candidate Douglas L. Hoffman suggested Wednesday in a letter that “ACORN, the unions and the Democratic Party” “tampered” with results to deny him victory.

Mr. Hoffman provided no evidence to support his claims, but asked fellow conservatives to send donations his way to “ensure every vote is counted.”

Jerry O. Eaton, Jefferson County Republican elections commissioner, called Mr. Hoffman's assertion “absolutely false.”

“No one has touched those ballots or has access to those ballots except board of elections staff - and in a bipartisan manner,” he said.

Mr. Hoffman trails Rep. William L. Owens, D-Plattsburgh, by 2,832 votes after 42.6 percent of absentee ballots districtwide were reported Wednesday. Officials are expected to count the 4,262 ballots remaining by Monday.

5. Gosh democrats are powerful powerful people

This district is overwhelmingly republican. ACORN is supposed to be (according to the repubs) a democratic organization. And of course we all know that they and democrats had full and complete control of all the votes and the ballot box in NY23. See what I mean when I say democrats are powerful people. They wrestled all that control away from those republicans sitting in those voting areas.

"No evidence to support our claims" should be the motto of this "Conservative Party"
