"WASHINGTON — Edward G. McDonough, the embattled longtime Democratic elections commissioner in Rensselaer County, prevailed in his efforts to get the U.S. Supreme Court to affirm that his lawsuit against a county special prosecutor should be reinstated after lower courts determined he was too late in filing it.


In a decision released Thursday morning, the nation's highest court said the clock determining the deadline for the filing of McDonough's claim against prosecutor Youel "Trey" Smith should have begun ticking when he was acquitted in December 2012, and not earlier when the allegedly fabricated evidence was first brought against him."
