As of Wednesday morning, Republicans in Nassau County-wide races were inching toward a GOP sweep.
As the Herald went to press, Bruce Blakeman, the Republican Town of Hempstead councilman, had surged past incumbent Democrat Laura Curran in the race for county executive, with nearly all precincts reporting. At press time, an official winner had not been declared in the race, but Blakeman had 52 percent of the vote to Curran’s 47 percent. Close to 20,000 absentee ballots remained to be counted, however.
On Wednesday morning, Curran had not conceded the race, saying, "This is not over, and we must trust the process."
