1 in 5 Ballots Rejected as Fraud Is Charged in N.J. Mail-In Election

Following accusations of widespread fraud, voter intimidation, and ballot theft in the May 12 municipal elections in Paterson, N.J., state Attorney General Gurbir S. Grewal (pictured) announced Thursday he is charging four men with voter fraud – including the vice president of the City Council and a candidate for that body.

With races still undecided, control of the council hangs in the balance. Paterson is New Jersey’s third largest city and the election will decide the fate of a municipal budget in excess of $300 million, in addition to hundreds of millions more in education spending and state aid.

In the City Council election, 16,747 vote-by-mail ballots were received, but only 13,557 votes were counted. More than 3,190 votes, 19% of the total ballots cast, were disqualified by the board of elections. Due to the pandemic, Paterson’s election was done through vote-by-mail. Community organizations, such as the city’s NAACP chapter, are calling for the entire election to be invalidated.

Mail-in ballots have long been acknowledged by voting experts to be more susceptible to fraud and irregularities than in-person voting. This has raised concerns from President Trump and other Republicans about the integrity of national elections in November, which are expected to include a dramatic increase in mail-in ballots. If Paterson is any guide, it ought to concern Democrats as well.

Over 800 ballots in Paterson were invalidated for appearing in mailboxes improperly bundled together – including a one mailbox where hundreds of ballots were in a single packet. The bundles were turned over to law enforcement to investigate potential criminal activity related to the collection of the ballots.

The board of elections disqualified another 2,300 ballots after concluding that the signatures on them did not match the signatures on voter records.

Paterson, NJ is the kind of place that the people of Detroit and Chicago can look down on.

Can Trump issue an executive order making it illegal to send out ballot application forms without them having them been requested by the voter?

I got 4 ballot applications that I did not ask for in the Ohio primary.

This is what the democrats have planned for the entire nation during the election. This is part of their plan to win.

And this is proof that mail in ballots are a tool for massive fraud. Which is why the democrat push it.

We live in NJ and recently received 1 mail in ballot for the primary election and applications for 4 other mail in ballots for the same primary. The primary mail in ballot was for my Mother who passed away 3 years ago. The other 4 applications were for myself, wife, son and daughter (who moved to Denver over 3 years ago). So we received 5 ballots potentially for 3 people.

No chance of fraud possible there.

Wait a few weeks when NJ has their primary election. All mail in ballots. The entire State is corrupt. They don’t care who knows about it. Look at Melendez. Walked away scott free. What does Cory Booker have to say? Or Murphy?

Paterson is New Jersey’s third largest city. . .

And an epicenter of street crime and corruption. Driving into the heart of the city shortly before Christmas, I noticed out my window an officer pacing deliberately toward a house with his right hand on his holster. When we reached our destination a few minutes later, we were told there had been a gangland execution there a few minutes earlier.

I already received my NJ Primary mail-in ballot.. I was going to go to the polling place to vote instead, but it’s Provisional paper ballots.. so WTH.. Better off doing mail-in ballot. I feel so freakin’ taken advantage of by these Leftist Democrat Scumbags in office.. They will try to steal the general election more than ever before. We always need a landslide to just break even!

Catch up. the left’s new mantra because you know they’re all a cult, so you see this all over social media now; “TRUMP VOTED TWICE BY MAIL IN BALLOT”
lol
So what? In his 53 years of voting he did it twice by mail, doesn’t make it the most easily fraudulent way to vote.

Whats wrong? Why can’t these leftist loons get their asses to an actual voting spot on election day and vote in person?
WHY?

Our “election” in NJ was decided already. The mail in ballots we all received are window dressing. It’s all theater.
