       Dear Madam Speaker: I have the honor to transmit herewith a 
     facsimile copy of a letter received from Mr. Todd D. 
     Valentine and Mr. Robert A. Brehm, Co-Executive Directors of 
     the New York State Board of Elections, indicating that,

       With best wishes, I am
           Sincerely,
                                               Lorraine C. Miller,

       Enclosure.
                                                State of New York,


                                     State Board of Elections,

                                     Albany, NY, November 5, 2010.
     Hon. Lorraine C. Miller,
     Clerk, House of Representatives,
     The Capitol, Washington, DC.
       Dear Ms. Miller: This is to advise you that the unofficial 
     results of the Special Election held on Tuesday, November 2, 
     2010, for Representative in Congress from the Twenty-Ninth 
     Congressional District of New York, show that Thomas W. Reed, 
     II received 96,078 and that Matthew C. Zeller received 73,498 
     of the total number of votes cast for that office.
       It would appear from these unofficial results that Thomas 
     W. Reed, II was elected as Representative in Congress from 
     the Twenty-Ninth Congressional District of New York.
       To the best of our knowledge and belief at this time, there 
     is no contest to this election.
       As soon as official results are certified to this office by 
     all county boards in the Twenty-Ninth Congressional District 
     in New York involved, an official Certification of Election 
     will be prepared for transmittal as required by law.
           Sincerely,
                                                  Robert A. Brehm,
                                                Todd D. Valentine.

                                                                           29th CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT UNEXPIRED TERM
