securing victory with 52.82 percent of the vote.
Correction
Official NYC Board of Elections results do not support 52.82%. Lasher received 7,410 votes out of 14,081 votes cast for candidates in the primary, which is about 52.6% (or 52.63%), not 52.82%.
Full reasoning
The official certified recap from the New York City Board of Elections for the June 25, 2024 Democratic primary in Assembly District 69 lists 7,410 votes for Micah Lasher and 14,081 total votes cast for candidates in that contest.
Using those official totals:
- 7,410 / 14,081 = 0.52625...
- That is 52.625%, which rounds to 52.6% (or 52.63% to two decimals)
So the article's figure of 52.82 percent is mathematically inconsistent with the certified election results.
