New Jersey election officials won't count ballots cast in person on Election Day until at least Nov. 10, a state official confirmed Monday.
The Board of Elections will count all mail-in ballots first and vote-by-mail ballots postmarked by Nov. 3 can arrive through Nov. 10 and be counted, officials said. New Jersey counties won't have a complete list of all mail-in ballots until at least Nov. 10.

Biden will win NJ, but Murphy will manufacture votes in Newark and Camden if Biden falls short of winning the popular vote. They need that for four more years of bitching.
Because...everyone have been home from work, and didnt have the time to send in their ballot???
Covid shouldnt have delayed ballots...it should have sped up the process.
People are home, off work, with plenty of time on their hands. What are they doing besides? Vacationing?
This seems fishy, but it is New Jersey, after all
Even Abraham Lincoln - over 150 years ago - learned he won the presidency by telegraph on Election Night.
NJ is already in the bag for Biden. Their little stunt will not delay the outcome of the election.
These states come up with more chaos theory every few
minutes. This was old to begin with, and it’s going
beyond that now.
Who do these people think they are. The whole nation
depends on an orderly process, and these folks are
screwing with it like they are grade-schoolers
dumping over trash cans to act out.
It wont matter. It will hardly make any national news at all when it does happen. You made your state inconsequential in this election.
Also, you are not getting bailed out, so youve not only ruined your states finances, youve ruined your states economy and tax base for years.
Youve destroyed many of your citizens lives and livelihoods, along with your political careers.
Your progressive politics have produced a lot of regressive consequences.
New Jersey won’t decide anything.
Say what? That makes no sense.
I got into talk radio in HS, listening to the late great Bob Grant. I remember him saying NJ politicians are so crooked when they croak they gotta be screwed into the ground. Some things never change.
Bob Grant!
Like Biden is a fake, a phony, and a fraud.
Then I know a lot of NJ election officials who should be at the bottom of the Hudson river.
What did they do in 2016? 2012? 2008? Why is 2018 such a damn problem for these people?
I don’t ever remember a state not being able to report on election night.
2020 that is! It’s late!
Geez
What could go wrong???
NJ must be full of idiots
Same here. But it looks like our votes will be counted last (if at all).
Or, like me, they didn't trust mailing in the ballot.
Sue them to start counting the Election Day votes earlier.
The mail-in ballots are going to have a lot of challenges due to various administrative deficiencies. There is much less uncertainty about the cast at the polling places Election Day ballots. In addition, if an overwhelming lead develops for one candidate or another, a point is reached where counting the remaining ballots won’t effect the outcome even if they are all for the losing candidate and a winner can be declared.
Under the present arrangement, the Garden State will be counting ballots nearly to Thanksgiving.
I think they just don’t want the optics of the red wave that is building in NJ. That would destroy the “red mirage” talking points.
HEY! We’re all f’ing liberals in NJ!
