Did Nitti Suffer From "East Side/West Side" GOP Divide?

I have to wonder if Gino Nitti's County Court race crashed on the rocks of the East Side/West Side split among Monroe County Republicans.

I haven't really looked close enough at the numbers in the canvas, but a quick look at the results in Pittsford, Perinton, Penfield and Mendon seem to show that Nitti under-performed other GOP candidates (including Bill Taylor) in those Towns. I won't fully jump the gun until I can thoroughly look at the canvas, but Nitti would not be the first County-wide candidate from the West Side to get a cool reception from East Side Republicans.

I'll be back after the week-end with a more definitive review.
