Congratulations to Rob Astorino

ROB ASTORINO (R), nephew of Maryknoll Father Bob Asterino, beat Democratic incumbent and long-time fixture on the local scene Andy Spano to become Westchester County Executive. With 100% of the precincts reporting, Astorino received 80,592 votes (58%) to Spano's 59,34 (42%).

Now that we have this, the governorships of New Jersey and Virginia, the 23rd NY Congressional District and same-sex marriage in Maine (repealed 54 % - 46%) solved, we can move on to the all-important First Ballot for First Assistant to the U.S. Regional Superior, due Nov. 17.
