One victim, Adam Jackson, had been a Republican deputy commissioner of elections for Montgomery County. His death had distracted his coworkers so much that the absentee ballots they sent out for the November elections accidentally omitted a line for Republican congressional candidate Joe Vitollo. When the mistake was discovered, new ballots were mailed to 89 voters in the town of Amsterdam who had received the incorrect ones.

The democrat who won that race
Paul Tonko
This is who they cheated for:
In June 2007, Tonko resigned his Assembly seat to become president and CEO of the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA). He led the organization until he departed to run for Congress in 2008.
Why was it so important to keep him in office?
