Long Island Town Faces Subpoenas Over Election Irregularities Involving 83-Year-Old Candidate
The town of Huntington on Long Island has been issued subpoenas by New York State Attorney General Letitia James following allegations of election irregularities. The investigation centers around Maria Delgado, an 83-year-old who claimed she was unaware of her candidacy for town supervisor despite appearing on the ballot. Delgado's unexpected candidacy and subsequent votes have raised suspicions of election manipulation, with accusations that Republicans may have used her to siphon votes from the Democratic candidate. The town is cooperating with the investigation, which seeks to uncover potential misconduct in the 2025 elections.
