Election officials working on plan to replace lost ballots A mail truck in Morristown caught fire on Friday and some vote-by-mail ballots being delivered to voters were destroyed, the New Jersey Globe has learned.

A New Jersey man is accused of being a secret Hezbollah operative in the United States for more than a decade, surveilling potential attack sites in New York City, Boston and Washington, prosecutors said Thursday. Alexei Saab, 42, from Morristown, was charged under a nine-count indictment in connection with a range of alleged terror activities. They included providing material support to a designated foreign terrorist organization (FTO) and receiving military-style training from that group, the Justice Department said. “Even though Saab was a naturalized American citizen, his true allegiance was to Hezbollah, the terrorist organization responsible for decades of terrorist...

I was driving in my F-150 down the main drag in Morristown, NJ around 8pm last night. A door of a car that is parked on the side of the street opens. Out pops El Heffe Shamu! Chris Christey!It was in front of all the restaurants. He must have been hungry.True. Story. I guess it makes sense because he lives in Morris County I think. I am surprised he was driving himself. I guess he isn't rolling like the big dogs like Rush Limbaugh and Donald Hump (I mean Trump)!

He said he's been speaking to the attorney general, FBI director and members of Congress and...

The woman’s mother was forcing her to have the abortion. “I was in the process of trying to get her...

Don Cresitello is not the kind of guy to say "I hate to say I told you so." In fact he takes great pleasure in doing so. And the Democratic former mayor of Morristown told you long ago that we need better coordination between local and federal authorities when it comes to dealing with potentially violent undocumented immigrants.That was proven against last week when an undocumented Mexican immigrant murdered three people in Missouri after being released from the Middlesex County jail in December to await trial on charges of domestic violence.That incident brought memories of a 2007 incident in which...

Welcome to Independence Day weekend, New Jersey. It's a time to cast aside all the aspersions brought on by the Turnpike's industrial corridor and celebrate our proud Revolutionary War history. Simply put, New Jersey, more than any other state, was the place where the battle was fought, nearly lost, and ultimately won. With a four-day holiday weekend, it's a chance to make a historic scavenger hunt to put New Jersey's legacy in perspective. That is, if the state lawmakers can play nice on the budget impasse and get the parks they're supposed to run reopen. Here are some stops along...

The bishop of the Paterson Diocese has asked priests in Morris County to contact organizers of the Saint Patrick's Day parade in Morristown and express their concerns that a group that supports abortion rights plans to participate. In a letter dated Feb. 13, Bishop Arthur Serratelli wrote that the National Organization for Women's support for "abortion, birth control and reproductive rights for all women ... stands against the teachings of the Church and the Catholic values that St. Patrick in his life as a missionary and bishop worked tirelessly to promote." The county chapter of NOW has marched in the...

BEGIN TRANSCRIPT RUSH: Now, I have intended for the past two days to talk about this teenager that sued her parents in New Jersey, and I'm gonna do it now. I promised, so here we go. "A New Jersey honor student suing her parents for..." She's losing the suit, by the way, at least lost an early round. The judge is Peter Bogaard. She is 18. She claims she was kicked out of the house. Her parents say, "No, she left on her own." She says her parents were disciplining her too much, making her do homework and so forth....

A New York town has agreed to drop criminal charges against an Amish community that had balked at following modern building codes for their homes by adding such features as bigger windows and smoke detectors — something the traditional sect members argued violate its religious beliefs. The case tested the boundaries of First Amendment freedoms versus the rights of government to enforce its rules, and both sides made concessions in a settlement. Morristown, N.Y., officials agreed that some Amish building methods did meet the rules, while the Amish agreed to forgo some techniques that didn’t live up to standards. On...

Thanks everyone for turning out, even if only in spirit. Estimated attendance was 5700-6000, well above the 4000 of July 4th. We were greeted early Monday AM to flyers taped to every light pole around the green denouncing us as "Racists & Seditionists." Other than that, no problems at all from a handful of opposition protesters. Everyone appeared to have had a very good time.

Just got in from the Morristown New Jersey Tea Party Protest so here's a trip report. We left a little bit early because my Mother was with hubby and I and it was a little hot for her, so we left a little earlier then the scheduled ending event time. Parking was a little difficult so we had to go to a parking garage, lots of cars going in and license plates from New York and Pennsylvania also. The people were SO nice that we ran into, Conservatives really are a nice bunch of people. I spoke to someone in...

Hello folks. I attended the Tax Day Tea Party on the Morristown Green in Morristown, New Jersey. I left about halfway through because I wasn't feeling well -- also because I had to go back to my car anyway (thanks to Morristown's stupid 2-hour parking limit) and decided I'd beat the traffic. I'll leave it to others to describe the speeches etc. However, I took many photos -- and I just got done putting them all up on Flickr! Enjoy. http://www.flickr.com/photos/26962760@N00/sets/72157616731892721

The bill would allow the National Park Service to collaborate with state and local governments and nonprofit organizations to preserve and protect sites threatened by housing sprawl and commercial development.
