Ahearn lose her senate bid, but I'm disappointed there were no political ads bashing this crooked politician. No mention of her connection to Spota, Burke and Skelos, no mention of the many lawsuits levied against her, no mention of her multimilion dollar corporation collecting money from the SBA COVID-19 loans, or anything I've shared on this site the past few years. I'm certain the gap would have been wider had people been aware of the corruption but her opponent, Anthony Palumbo, is a tough on crime Republican who has worked with Ahearn in the past.
"In the State Senate race, the margin was much closer. Ms. Ahearn, a social worker and attorney from Port Jefferson, fell short by fewer than 5,000 votes. Mr. Palumbo earned 87,563 votes, or 51.37 percent, to Ms. Ahearn's 82,900 votes, or 48.63 percent.
Mr. LaValle is retiring after more than 40 years in government; his district has not been represented by a Democrat in more than 100 years.
'Though disappointed by the result, I am heartened to know that our work over these past months will ensure that the issues facing our community will continue to be front and center as we all strive to make Suffolk County the best place it can be,' Ms. Ahearn said in a statement.
She congratulated Mr. Palumbo on his victory and pledged to 'work with him for the betterment of our communities during these difficult times.'"
