The New Jersey governor’s race is still up in the air thanks to vote-counting debacles plaguing several counties — including in a key area where dozens of machines were shut down before ballots were counted.
A mistake by a poll worker led machines in 56 voting districts in Essex County, the state’s second-most populated region, to be turned off before their ballots were tallied, local election officials said.
The flub has helped throw a wrench into calling the stunningly tight race between Democratic Gov. Phil Murphy and GOP foe Jack Ciattarelli.
“Those machines have to be brought back to the warehouse, and the judge will issue an order for us to open those machines, retrieve the results and post those results,’’ County Clerk Christopher Durkin told News 12.
He told The Post on Wednesday that he expects to have the districts’ results by Thursday night.
“The sooner, the better,” Durkin said.
The county voted heavily Democratic in the 2020 presidential election.
Murphy had been comfortably leading in the polls going into Election Day, only to have Ciattarelli narrow the gap between them to as few as 465 votes statewide at one point Wednesday.

Fixed.
A Dembacle
Just a “flub”, a “glitch”, a “bug” in the system. No doubt about it.
Quote: “He did great so whatever”
He lost so whatever. Murphy could win by one vote and he will double down on lockdowns and dictatorship. Jack ran a crud campaign and insulted his own voters. He failed to call Murphy the dictator POS that he is.
Republicans did not kick arse in NJ by riding Jack’s coattails. No no. New activist, courageous candidates stood up for school board, state legislature, township counsel, etc and ran the campaigns that Jack refused to run. He rode their wave.
snafu = fubar
Ping a Ling for a Ding Dong.
As I said....
I Monday morning quarterback well.
When I voted yesterday, not only was I not asked for ID (they haven't asked for ID in years), but the book I signed did not have any signature image for comparison. I could literally have been anyone who knows my name and address, because that's all they asked for.
I actually know him personally. Known him for a couple decades. Privately he’s more conservative than he lets on but he can’t say it publicly in Essex.
I had to sign a pad and I saw that when it was turned to the poll worker my signature image was there for the worker to see.
Funny how it’s always a “snafu, flub, mistake” in RAT controlled cities.
Complete audits for EVERY election form here on out. Otherwise, this shit will continue.
That’s good to know.
Thanks for posting.
. . . and when the ‘SNAFU’ is fixed, all the votes will be for Joe Biden!
There are often times when I want to ask him, “Why in blazes are you a Dem?” but the answer is obvious: it’s Essex.

That sort of pragmatism can cut both ways. I hope he just calls it straight.
WE NEED an army on the ground in NJ NOW!! I am quite sure the RNC is on it /s. LOL, LOL, LOL they pour EVERYTHING into Virginia and completely ignored NJ………WTH???
The Democrats mantra: “Let the cheating begin”!
We’ll have to audit this election, too. Regardless of outcome.
