DECISION ORDER

ORDERED that the final order is affirmed insofar as appealed from, without costs or disbursements.

The Supreme Court was without authority to grant the petitioners' request for a manual recanvassing and recounting of contested punch-card ballots, as such a remedy is beyond those specifically provided for in the Election Law ( see Matter of Delgado v. Sunderland, 97 N.Y.2d 420; Matter of Mondello v. Nassau County Bd. of Elections, 6 A.D.3d 18). In light of our determination, we need not reach the remaining contentions.

ALTMAN, J.P., CRANE, FISHER and LIFSON, JJ., concur.
