TRENTON, NJ — State Senator Joe Pennacchio (R-Morris, Passaic) is calling on federal authorities—specifically Assistant U.S. Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon—to expand their investigation into New Jersey’s voter registration and jury selection systems following reports that thousands of non-citizens were mistakenly registered to vote.
The demand for federal oversight comes amidst growing controversy over computer glitches, state agency oversight, and disclosures surrounding the state’s potential jury pool.
