2011 Erie County Executive race

The race for Erie County Executive is in a "dead heat" according to the latest polls.  But Tuesday voters will finally have a chance to cast their ballot --  ending a long-campaign battle that pits republican incumbent Chris Collins against democratic opponent Mark Poloncarz. 

Both candidates held final "get-out-the-vote efforts Monday.   WBFO'S Eileen Buckley talks to University at Buffalo political science professor Joshua Dyck  for his analysis on the county executive race on this Election Day 2011.
