I’ve said this many times since 2016... the Democrats thought Hillary had the election sown up and didn’t want to taint her victory so they didn’t do much voter fraud. They won’t make that mistake again. If this midterm shows anything, when they pull out the stops, they change results in even deep red places.
Just give it to the Dem. You know their going to get it anyway.
Being from Bayonne, this is Dem vs Dem.
Hudson County! Where I was born and raised. Kearny, NJ. Named after it’s most famous local son Union General Phil Kearny. The place had always been crooked as a dogs hind leg. Harrison , NJ, to the towns southern border was even worse. Look up the Frank E. Rodgers.
