     Hon. John Boehner,
     Speaker, House of Representatives,
     Washington, DC.
       Dear Mr. Speaker: I have the honor to transmit herewith a 
     facsimile copy of a letter received from Mr. Robert Brehm and 
     Ms. Kimberly Galvin on behalf of Mr. Todd Valentine, Co-

     the Twenty-Sixth Congressional District, State of New York.
       With best wishes, I am
           Sincerely,
                                                    Karen L. Haas,

                                  ____

                                                State of New York,


                                     State Board of Elections,

                                         Albany, NY, May 27, 2011.
     Hon. Karen L. Haas,
     Clerk, House of Representatives,
     Washington, DC.
       Dear Ms. Haas: This is to advise you that the unofficial 
     results of the Special Election held on Tuesday, May 24, 
     2011, for Representative in Congress from the Twenty-Sixth 
     Congressional District of New York, show that Kathy Courtney 
     Hochul received 50,890, Jane Corwin received 45,501, Jack 
     Davis received 9,658 and Ian L. Murphy received 1,128 of the 
     total number of votes cast for that office.
       It would appear from these unofficial results that Kathy 
     Courtney Hochul was elected as Representative in Congress 
     from the Twenty-Sixth 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-Sixth Congressional District 
     in New York involved, an official Certification of Election 
     will be prepared for transmittal as required by law.
           Sincerely,
     Robert A. Brehm,
     Kimberly Galvin.

                                                                         28th CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT--UNOFFICIAL RESULTS
