Nassau, Nov 4 (THAINDIAN NEWS) Poll results are reflecting that Nassau County Executive Thomas Suozzi is leading Edward Mangano by a very slim margin.

All the precincts reported, and Thomas Suozzi, who is a Glen Cove Democrat, is leading over Edward Mangano, who is a Republican from Bethpage, by just 237 votes, according to the Nassau Board of Elections on late Tuesday. Hence the republicans are now looking forward to quite a slim majority in the Nassau County Legislature.

Attorneys for both sides had already got a court order on Tuesday, which froze the machines and paper ballots, according to Democratic lawyer Steven R. Schlesinger.

“This is a tough time to be an incumbent, because the people are in a bad mood,” Suozzi told supporters Tuesday night.

“I just don’t see Democrats coming out the way we would have liked,” Jacobs said. “It doesn’t mean anything terrible for the results, but it doesn’t give me a warm and fuzzy feeling right now.”
