NJ here: my husband & I both used the mail in ballots, BUT, we put them in the secure lockbox. They show received. We are in SJ and it’s mostly Trump country down here. I see a few biden signs, but not many.
Checked cspan and they don’t have any of these rallies listed. However, sometimes you can go to cspan1 and they are showing the rally. Gosh, even cspan tries to hide these!
NJ would have more seats that it is supposed to in the House, because redistricting would be delayed. House is based on population, right? Many have exited NJ due to high taxes, and there is the possibility that there would be less seats. That is my understanding.
question #2. I voted yes, reason being everyone goes to boot camp and is technically trained to be combat ready. Troops could be called up at any time.
No on question #3.
Even if it does go through, it will probably be challenged in court. It would give NJ an unfair balance of power other states would not have.
It depends on where you live in New Jersey. There are some northern counties, shore counties and southern counties that will go red. If you look at the results from 2016 you will see that those same counties went red. The problems are the usual democratic cities, Camden, Newark and Trenton, and that sadly, is what tips the state blue.
I spoke with our County Clerk this morning. I was surprised he took the time to speak with me. He told me he had been a Democrat/Republican/Democrat. He was actually the Chief of Police in my town when we first moved here over 20 years ago. I expressed my concern regarding fraud, mailed ballots in ditches, trash, ballots in trunks of cars, etc., you hear stories of this every day. He assured me this would not happen in this county, he wasn’t going to throw his career away for one election. He told me he has investigators out every single day following up reports he gets about the mailed ballots and any irregularities. We have drop boxes in this county, so we’re not going to mail them. Just wanted to share the conversation, and by the way we are in Southern New Jersey/Gloucester County.
