HERE WE GO! Democrat NJ Senate President Refuses To Concede To Republican Truck Driver Who Unseated Him...Claims “12,000 ballots were recently found”

Earlier today, we reported about 58-year-old truck driver Edward Durr, who defeated longtime State Senate President Steve Sweeney. Durr, who only spent $153 on his primary campaign, has just won southern New Jersey’s state Senate race, beating out the longest-serving Senate president in the state’s history.

Having lived in New Jersey his whole life, Durr started his campaign by introducing himself door-to-door and, as a self-proclaimed “simple man,” he made a campaign video primarily by himself.

When referencing his opponent, Durr said, “He did not fight for the people, and that had to end. I’m a person who believes in the right to the people. I’m a firm constitutionalist believer, and I believe in people’s rights. When I saw how people were being mistreated or ignored, that angered me to say: ‘I’m going to make my voice heard.'”

After watching the state’s leaders respond to the COVID-19 pandemic and being disappointed in their actions, he decided to take a shot at running for office. In his campaign video, Durr focuses his criticisms on Sweeney’s passive response to the state Governor, Phil Murphy, forcing COVID patients into nursing homes which resulted in over 8,000 senior deaths.

His campaign video also appeals to all New Jersey families who lost their jobs during the pandemic, pointing out that 1/3 of the state’s small businesses were forced to close down. He also highlights the rate at which residents are leaving the state. The video ends with Durr declaring that it’s time for a change and, as he gets on his motorcycle, tells his viewers “Let’s end single-party rule.”

Now, Politico is reporting that the defeated NJ State Senate President Steve Sweeney is refusing to concede the race to the truck driver who humiliated him, citing (surprise, surprise) 12,000 ballots that were just found in one NJ county. The name of the county where the 12,000 ballots were “found” has not yet been released.

“The results from Tuesday’s election continue to come in, for instance, there were 12,000 ballots recently found in one county,” Sweeney said in an email to POLITICO. “While I am currently trailing in the race, we want to make sure every vote is counted. Our voters deserve that, and we will wait for the final results.”

Sweeney, who as Senate president is the state’s second-most-powerful elected official, was down more than 2,000 votes to Durr, a truck driver who says he spent less than $10,000 on the race.

Sweeney’s projected loss in South Jersey’s 3rd Legislative District was the most shocking in an election that featured a number of surprises, including Gov. Phil Murphy’s closer-than-expected victory over Republican Jack Ciattarelli.

Haven’t we seen this dog and pony show before? I would guess, if they found 12,000 ballots, I bet every single solitary ballot, will be for the rat 🐀

"Found" - aka printed so as to give him the victory by fraud. What a POS. I literally would not spit on the sidewalk to save his life.

Patriots shed blood and spilled blood protecting this country. They have killed and died for it. I believe voter fraud is a direct threat. I believe voter fraud should be a capital offense at the national, state, or local level. Even one vote intentionally fraudulent should result in a death sentence.

Simple question. How is a candidate announcing 12,000 votes being found, and there is no reference to any announcement by election officials?

This would be another 20% of the total vote suddenly found. Where is any official announcement of this?

Watta coincidence...... /s.

Murphy also found uncounted votes when his opponent was ahead in the governor’s race.

And isn’t it strange how found votes always favor the losing Democrat?.......always........

Given the seismic shift in VA, if the PUBBIES fail to challenge the NJ governor result, the top of the national GOP needs to be purged ASAP of any Bill Kristol, “Reince” Priebus leftovers! Anyone else sick & tired of playing these stupid games? We have a country to save! Let ‘em know how you feel!

Considering the simplicity and manfulness of his approach, the relative meagerness of his means and income, and the relative (in their mind, most likely) lowliness of his vocation and lifestyle, Durr simply must be the most instantly-get-under-their-skin-and-trigger-involuntary-head-spinning-and-technicolor-vomiting-of-elitist-disdain kind of guy to Sweeney and his ilk.

In a counterintuitive, dare I say almost Christ-like way, were Sweeney to do what seems to be on the verge of doing, and literally steal his legislative seat back from Durr in front of our Maker and everybody during this post-election period, this would only magnify the already salutary impact Durr has had on the politics and governance of the Garden State.

It has been explained that when these snakes are anticipating a close race or a loss, the late-arriving ballots they produce are invariably valid.

They literally hold the valid ballots if unsuspecting sympathetic voters in abeyance as an insurance policy against a bad electoral result.

In the case I’m describing, all of the bogus votes are the ones counted first, very soon after the polls close, at a moment in time during which most honest people would think the risk of dirty tricks happening is low (that is, because ostensibly nobody knows yet that the snakes’ preferred candidate is about to lose the race).

This is the typical way the Rats win elections.They just happen to find missing ballots in vehicles.

Funny thing is the elections are not held in vehicles but that’s where the ballots tend to turn up missing.

Just more Rat election fraud.

“The results from Tuesday’s election continue to come in, for instance, there were 12,000 ballots recently found in one county,”

12,000 ballots is quite a large number, and this from just one county in NJ.

Not knowing how NJ state senators are elected, from a specific district (I think) or statewide, my thought is:

How many other races are affected, and why hasn't any other election official mentioned that ALL races in the area in question should be halted awaiting counting of these new ballots?

Or did these magic ballots only have votes for one race?

And how many counties in NJ are still using paper ballots?

12,000 ballots were “found” in some county.
He hasn’t decided which county yet.
