Teaneck NJ, according to Assemblywoman Holly Schepisi, If you live in Teaneck and potentially surrounding communities in Bergen County please make sure you received a correct mail in ballot from the County Clerk before you vote and send it in. Apparently there were incorrect ballots sent to residents with Congressman Josh Gottheimer and Congressman Bill Pascrell on the ballot for districts they don’t even represent. In Teaneck alone it’s impacted over 7,000 voters. Check and make sure the candidates you are voting for actually are your district’s candidates. New ballots are being printed for those households identified as receiving a wrong ballot. If you are one of those households and have already sent in a ballot please be aware that ballot WILL NOT BE COUNTED. You must vote again when your new ballot comes. Universal mail in ballots…..what could possible go wrong in New Jersey?
