Karen M. Brinkerhoff, Respondent, v Edward J. Mahoney et al., Constituting the Board of Elections of the County of Erie, et al., Appellants.

Matter of Engert v McNab, 60 NY2d 607). (Appeal from order of Supreme Court, Erie County, Ricotta, J. — Election Law.) Present — Hancock, Jr., J. P., Callahan, Boomer, Green and Schnepp, JJ.
