With almost all ballots from the City of Glen Cove counted, Pam Panzenbeck is on track to win reelection for a third term as mayor, defeating Democratic challenger Marsha Silverman with 56.42% of the vote. The data comes from the Nassau County Board of Elections.
“Both parties acknowledged on Tuesday night that absentee ballots would likely still arrive and that the final vote totals were not yet official.”
Despite Silverman’s loss, Democrats recorded a minor success — it appears the city council will continue to be evenly split, with three Democrats and three Republicans. Earlier results had suggested a possible 4-2 Republican majority for most of the night.
