Trenton NJ, Senator Steve Oroho and Assemblymen Parker Space and Hal Wirths (R-24) issued the following statement in response to Governor Murphy’s announcement that the November election will be limited to vote-by-mail:

“This shouldn’t be mandated. It should be up to individual voters to decide. If they want a mail-in ballot they can ask for one, and if they want to vote in person, they shouldn’t be prohibited from doing that.

Trenton NJ, Senator Michael Testa said Governor Phil Murphy’s plan to have voters cast their ballots almost exclusively by mail in the upcoming general election will cause unnecessary chaos in November.

“Governor Murphy’s plan to have everyone vote by mail will create unnecessary confusion in the upcoming general election when ballots will be cast for offices ranging from President of the United States to town council,” said Testa (R-1). “If our experience with the July vote-by-mail primary is any guide, New Jersey isn’t ready to pull off an election of such consequence by mail in a way that will ensure that every voter’s ballot is properly counted.”

Mail-In Ballot Fraud in New Jersey Signals National Trouble

Ridgewood NJ, Concern over mail-in balloting is rising as the presidential election approaches. Last month, we highlighted California Governor Gavin Newsom’s brazen mail-in ballot scam: an executive order mandating mail-in ballots “to preserve public health in the face of the threat of Covid-19.” Judicial Watch challenged the executive order in federal court, prompting the state legislature to pass a law ensuring that mail-in balloting would take place.

In June in a response to an Open Public Records Act request to the Bergen County Clerk’s Office  it was discovered that 710 Ridgewood voter ballots or approximately 15% were REJECTED in connection with the May 12, 2020 Board of Education, Board of Education Budget, and Village Council General Election.

Calling Vote By Mail A “Complete Disaster” former gubernatorial,candidate Joseph Rudy Rullo Warns We Wont Know the Count of Singh vs Mehta Till July 22nd

Linwood NJ, former gubernatorial,candidate Joseph Rudy Rullo commented on the close vote count in the GOP Senatorial primary and explained the situation in a comment on Facebook on Saturday

“Thank you to all my supporters who worked so hard to elect Hirsh Singh in GOP primary to remove Cory Booker from politics. We will not know who the winner is most likely until July 22nd. This will be when all ballots are counted for those who voted in person. Many mail in ballots coming in until next Tuesday deadline will not even be counted until that Wednesday. Hirsh has almost 80% of the vote in 4 of the most Republican counties and if this trend continues in combination of even more new ballots to count numbers will change significantly. Nobody has any idea of how many people actually voted until all mail in ballots are received, so how can you even figure out mathematically. The universe of voters is not constant. Its variable. We have no idea what the outcome will be. This is the reason why myself and Hirsh Singh disagreed with Rik Mehta team about Vote by mail ballots which they support. We opposed vote by mail from the beginning and wanted voters to go to polls using voting machines. It is a complete disaster!”

Reader says ,”Voting by an electronic device in person is pretty much effective in being fraud-free “

VOTE_theridgewoodblog

“Voting by an electronic device in person is pretty much effective in being fraud-free.
Voting by mail involves so much that is susceptible to fraud. The main two are:
1. Who knows if the mail-in ballot was completed by the person on the form?
2. The form is opened by a election official. Who know if that official is honest? Who knows if they discard or alter any forms that don’t go with the party/candidate that they favor?

“Fixing” ballots after an election deadline is a recipe for disaster.

The point of an election is to confer power to someone voted for by a plurality of the electorate — the candidate with the most votes. An equally important point is to convince the supporters of the loser that the winner deserved to win — that the count was fair and unbiased.
