NJ Politician, 3 Others Charged With Voter Fraud In Mail-In Election

The TDS morons in here insist voter fraud doesn't happen, but every day more proof rolls in that it does.

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

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.​

Democrats steal elections every chance they get.

Yes they do.

Because that's the ONLY way Rats can win an election.

Scum that they are.

If Trump doesn't shut this shit down, this election will be contested until every ballot is connected to a live, legal, registered voter.

why less chance of voter suppression happening and they are paper ballots, easy to check.

the republicans will still cheat.

Do these guys look like Republicans to you?

Fucking hang them all in public

You know, saying stupid shit like that just embarrasses anyone that despises voter fraud. You know we don't do hangings and haven't in decades. We damn sure do not do them in public.

Why then is it that the Democrats are demanding the use of mail-in ballots and not both parties? Please don't parrot that tired Democrat refrain that Republicans want to suppress voters.

Democrats desperately want to blur the line between absentee ballots and voting by mail. Absentee voters have to request that a ballot be sent to them, at a specific address. There is a ballot being delivered to a particular person and when received back by the board of elections, that signature can be compared with that of who requested the ballot.

You'll agree too that Democrats scream whenever purging of the voter registration tolls is mentioned. Voter suppression they scream. When, in fact, there are millions of names on those lists of dead voters or voters who have left the district and now live in another city or country for that matter.

How are millions of ballots, mailed to dead people and people no longer in the district going to be prevented from being mailed in fraudulently?

Sounds like someone in the "Clerk's Office" who had access to the ballots through a major portion of their production process is a prime suspect AND that security was very lax regarding the ballots ordering, handling, storage, dissemination and collection! Could it be a fucking inside job that may well have been botched in such a way as to be discovered! Now what bunch is trying like Hell to eliminate vote-by-mail during this God Forsaken pandemic????

ROFL! It must be a Republican because it makes Dims look stupid?

Do you suppose that it's possible that Dims are stupid?

You know what Squirt, belonging to ANY political tribe is not a shield against stupidity. Don't matter if you be a Dem, a Rep, a Libertarian, a Green or some other type of freak like your crooked self! You don't believe that was a terribly botched shot at mail-in voter fraud, stuffing 800 ballots in one box? WOW, the stealth!

The last mail-in voter fraud of any scale was in North Carolina in 2018 and it was Republican sponsored! So yeah, GOP'ers can be just as stupid as any other flock of screw-ups!

belonging to ANY political tribe is not a shield against stupidity, but being a Democrat is a guarantee that you're stupid.

Just further evidence of why mail-in voting is a real problem. Ballot security is all but non-existent.

​

The New Jersey Attorney General’s office announced voter fraud charges Wednesday against four individuals, including a city councilman and an elected city councilman, according to a press release. Paterson City Councilman Michael Jackson, Councilman-elect Alex Mendez, and two other men are alleged to have exploited the mail-in voting process in the May 12th Special election in Paterson, New Jersey.​

​

The investigation was opened when U.S. Postal Inspection Service found hundreds of mail-in ballots stuffed in a single mailbox in Paterson and a number of additional ballots in a mailbox in Haledon.​

​

​

​

“Today’s charges send a clear message: if you try to tamper with an election in New Jersey, we will find you and we will hold you accountable,” said Attorney General Grewal. “We will not allow a small number of criminals to undermine the public’s confidence in our democratic process.”​

​

Jackson, who represents the City’s 1st Ward and is the Vice President of the City Council, is alleged to have solicited voters to hand over their ballots and is alleged to have turned in ballots without being the authorization bearer to do so. His charges include election fraud, fraud in casting mail-in vote, unauthorized possession of ballots, false registration or transfer, tampering with public records, and falsifying or tampering with records.​

​

...​

​

Governor Phil Murphy ordered that elections be conducted by mail in New Jersey, according to a March 19th executive order. Murphy did so over concerns of the spread of the novel coronavirus.​

​

Since the order was placed, however, there have been many mistakes that threaten the integrity of the elections. For example, Passaic County Board of Elections commissioners failed to count 800 ballots, a county spokesperson earlier told NJ.com.​

Impossible. I was assured by my moral and intellectual superiors that voter fraud is a myth.
