Constantino declares victory, but Gendebien not conceding in NY-21
Constantino led by just over 6,000 votes with 80% counted, while Gendebien said he would wait for more totals before conceding.
- Republican Anthony Constantino declared victory on Tuesday night in New York's 21st Congressional District, leading Democrat Blake Gendebien 49% to 47% with 80% of votes counted, according to unofficial returns.
- Constantino, the CEO of Amsterdam-based Sticker Mule, self-funded his campaign with $17 million and secured President Donald Trump's endorsement after erecting a 100-foot "Vote for Trump" sign at his facility.
- Although he did not officially concede, Gendebien acknowledged Tuesday night that Constantino would "narrowly win." The dairy farmer from Lisbon thanked more than 85,000 supporters who backed his North Country-focused campaign.
- Vice President JD Vance campaigned for Constantino in Rome on Monday, bolstering the GOP candidate. During his victory speech, Constantino announced a $1,000 bonus for Sticker Mule employees and berated members of the media.
- Officials confirmed at least 17,000 absentee ballots were requested across the sprawling district, with more than 14,000 returned. Because ballots must be postmarked by Election Day to count, the final margin remains subject to ongoing verification.
