The result was a victory by Democrat Bill Owens.
Scozzafava and Hoffman split the vote. If you add their votes together, it's actually more than the Democrat got. And in that race, the Republican who dropped out actually endorsed the Democrat!
When given the choice between big business and big government, choose big business. Big business never threw millions of people into gas chambers, but big government did.
