Given time to account for absentee ballots, the final results evened the score at a deadlock, each candidate receiving seven votes. According to Oswego County Board of Elections officials, the tiebreaking decision would be left to the Oswego County Conservative Party to discuss and decide through a committee vote. “The Executive Committee of the Oswego County Conservative Party met Thursday (Sept 28)  night at its regularly scheduled meeting and the issue of appointing a candidate for the Conservative line for the 25th Legislative district was voted on.

Therefore, there will be no representative for the Conservative Party on this line,” said Ron Greenleaf, Chairman of the Oswego County Conservative Party.
