Moran:

The Conservative Party candidate is conceding the race for New York’s 23rd District for the second time, saying he doesn’t have enough votes.

Doug Hoffman had withdrawn his first concession to Democratic Rep. Bill Owens, saying the race was close enough that absentee ballots could change the outcome in the closely watched New York Congressional race.

Now, Hoffman said he has no hope of winning.

Guy sure is quick on the uptake.

    I don’t blame Hoffman. As it turned out, the election was really close, and he could have won on the absentee ballots.

    Getting the vote count right, having an outcome that comports with the public’s will, is the most important thing.

    I thought this in 2000, and I still do.

    Losing will usually cause that to happen.

    Now, Hoffman said he has no hope of winning.

    In Hoffman’s defense, Fox News made it seem like he had a lot more supporters with clever editing.

    At least Hoffman has lots of new friends to help carry home all those bags of No Hope. That shit is heavy.

    @joe from Lowell:
    The vote was close, but the odds against the absentees giving Hoffman the victory were very high. After fixing the mistakes the election night total was about +3K for Owens with about 10K absentee ballots sent out (though nowhere near that many returned). In a race where presumably most of the absentee ballots sent out were returned before Scozzafava (or however you spell it) dropped out, it’s very unlikely that Hoffman gets the 3K+plurality of the remaning votes.
