Hudson sees heavy early voting in midterm election: 'It's a referendum on Donald Trump'
Jersey Journal ^ | November 5, 2018

Early voting has been heavy in Hudson County in the run-up to a midterm election that experts say is a referendum on President Donald Trump. Hudson County election officials have already received 9,000 walk-in and vote-by-mail ballots, nearly as many as in 2012 when the region went to the polls on the heels of Hurricane Sandy, Hudson County Board of Elections Clerk Michael Harper said Monday morning.

In 2012, when President Barack Obama ran against former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, there were 9,900 early votes cast in Hudson County, Harper said, adding that Hurricane Sandy likely influenced the number of early votes by people who were not sure if polling places would be open.

Referendum on Trump means that when all the Votes are Cast and Counted, Donald. J. Trump (Donaldus Trumpius) will still be POTUS until January 2021 if not January 2025.

He will also be wielding a Solid Gold Veto Pen should the Rats take back the House.

Well,if the article is right, the County already has three Dim CongressCritters. I am sorry there are no conservatives to upset them, but it doesn’t sound like it will help the Dims much except for re-electing the accused predator Menendez.

Or it’s a referendum on the Democrats’ witchhunt of Justice Kavanaugh that has been exposed as a bunch of outright lies.

It’s a referendum on each candidate.

Trump’s referendum will be 2020.

No, they don’t. They are the ones run by Boss Norcross, who is NOT supporting Menendez. He’s usually good for 200k, but not this time.

I grew up in Jersey City. My grandfather was a driver for Mayor Hague and a ward healer. We got our free turkey every Thanksgiving. The political corruption in Hudson County remains unchanged from those days. Hillary got almost 75% of the vote in Hudson County. A large turnout there and Essex County will ensure a Menendez victory.

NJ seems to always tease Reps into believing that they can win there. Ain't going to happen in this case, even for a RINO like Hugin.

Yes, I am at ground zero... but I was there 9/01/80 and saw Reagan at Liberty State Park.

Hoboken had a charge of voter fraud last month.

Nice. Lived in Hoboken for 11 years. Great place.

Walked in a bar bathroom and saw Mayor Russo doing coke. Classy.
