28.501
Correction

This vote total is misformatted. Garbarino’s 2012 total was 28,501 votes, not 28.501.

Full reasoning

The official New York State Board of Elections contest data for the 2012 general election, State Assembly District 7 lists Andrew R. Garbarino’s ballot-line votes as 22,174 (Republican) + 4,672 (Conservative) + 1,414 (Independence) + 241 (MSP), which totals 28,501.

The article prints that total as “28.501”, which is numerically incorrect in English notation. This appears to be a punctuation/formatting error where a comma was replaced by a decimal point.

Claim
38.235
Correction

This vote total is misformatted. Garbarino’s 2016 total was 38,235 votes, not 38.235.

Full reasoning

The official New York State Board of Elections contest data for the 2016 general election, State Assembly District 7 lists Andrew R. Garbarino’s ballot-line votes as 31,330 (Republican) + 5,018 (Conservative) + 1,612 (Independence) + 275 (Reform), which totals 38,235.

The article prints that total as “38.235”, which is numerically incorrect in English notation. This is another punctuation/formatting error where a comma was replaced by a decimal point.

Claim
He defeated Assemblyman Mike LiPetri, 65% to 35%.
Correction

The official 2020 Republican primary results were about 63.9% for Garbarino and 36.1% for LiPetri, not 65%–35%.

Full reasoning

Official New York State Board of Elections contest data for the June 23, 2020 Republican primary in New York’s 2nd Congressional District shows Andrew R. Garbarino with 17,459 votes and Mike LiPetri with 9,866 votes.

Using those candidate totals, Garbarino received about 63.9% of the two-candidate vote and LiPetri about 36.1%. So the article’s “65% to 35%” description is not correct; it overstates Garbarino’s margin by more than a full percentage point.
