NJ Dem leader refuses to concede to GOP truck driver, says thousands of ballots 'recently found'

[shockedcanadian]

You don't need Russian disinformation when these oddities occur repeatedly (generally in certain cities, no?).

I've read comments from places like India, England, Australia after the 2020 election. They weren't to praise the transparent and smooth election process in the U.S. Maybe it's time to take election security and consequences for cheating very seriously.

Do the powers that be in the U.S know or care about how these constant irregularities are viewed by the rest of the Free world? Maybe someone mislead him and he's just another desperate, entitled politician. From the Primaries in New York to the Federal election and beyond, how does this instill American citizens confidence in the democratic process?

NJ Dem Steve Sweeney refuses to concede election to GOP truck driver, says thousands of ballots 'found'

Democratic New Jersey Senate President Steve Sweeney says thousands of “recently found” ballots supports his refusal to concede election to a Republican challenger

Democratic New Jersey Senate President Steve Sweeney says thousands of "recently found" ballots supports his refusal to concede to a Republican challenger who ran a low-budget campaign.

"The results from Tuesday’s election continue to come in, for instance there were 12,000 ballots recently found in one county," Sweeney said in an email to the Philadelphia Inquirer on Thursday. "While I am currently trailing in the race, we want to make sure every vote is counted. Our voters deserve that, and we will wait for the final results."

Sweeney’s office did not immediately respond to Fox News’ request for comment on the matter, specifically on identifying which South Jersey county recently found the ballots.

Annnd here we go again. I wonder if all 12,000 ballots were all for Sweeney.

 

[RodISHI]

Fishy.

 

[Circe]

Fishy.

The fix is in.

 

[Lisa558]

If the race were closer between Youngkin and Maculiffe, the Dems would have tried to steal that one too. It was just that Youngkin was so far ahead that they couldn’t make up the diffefence.

What this shows is that a Republican can’t win by a small margin, or Dems will “find” more votes the next day. Sort of makes you wonder about who honestly won the NJ race, doesn’t it?

Anomalous election results deserve some scrutiny to be sure. All parties should have the class to accept the results.

It doesn't matter which side thinks they're getting screwed. That perception is bad either way and mail in voting is 100% responsible. We need to do away with mail in voting and demand an ID at the polls. Of course our military would still be able to vote via absentee ballots

Finding ballots after election night could be deemed illegal if they had the guts to do it.....especially if there is no chain of custody....none of them should count.

As with covid-19 and confusing instructions from government, if citizens feel their democratic election process is not on the level, the social contract between government and citizens breaks down.

The biggest benefactor of such an outcome is of course the enemies of such countries. The next great loss is faith from foreign allies in the strength of American Values and Principles.

The Goodwill granted to the U.S for so many decades by other nations has taken a hit for various reasons over the last few decades, but no realization would be as damaging as if other nations assesses that America is no longer a democracy.

How the fuck do you misplace and forget about 12,000 ballots? Even 1200 is really a stretch, let alone 12,000.

Do a recount if you want, but ballots magically found days after the election is over should be thrown out and it should be a criminal charge to try and introduce them.

I believe this is entirely fraud here. If they could have won to start with they would have been double and triple checking everything they could possibly have. They would have been so desperate they would have found those to begin with, not days later.

And for the sake of argument let's say those ballots are legit. What does that say about our voting system if 12,000 can go missing and no one knows it till almost a week later?

 

[Darkwind]

Does everyone have their head in the sand?

Why is it, do you suppose, that they have a law that says no one will be declared a winner until five days after the polls are closed?

This year, NJ law states that they will accept ballots up to Nov. 7th.

This law exists just for the purpose of ensuring that enough ballots are forged to get a Democrat victory.

If ever we needed a federal law on election it is one that states NO BALLOT will be accepted after the close of the polls. Not for any reason.

You do realize that the republican gubernatorial candidate that lost is doing exactly the same thing, don't you?

I did see that he refused to concede, all of this started with Clinton in 2016 btw, may have even contributed to the whole "let's find more votes after the election" phenomenon, but I digress.

Ultimately, did this politician find 12,000 votes days after the election?

Probably the Republican really won. But this IS New Jersey, one of the most crooked states in the Union. So yeah, they'll find their 12,000 solid Dem votes ---- in a southern New Jersey county where everyone normally votes Republican.

Who wants to give up pilfering tax money?

Agree! We should simply require that all mail-in ballots be in hand at the polling place by 7 pm Election Day. None of this scrounging up ballots AFTER you know how many you need to flip the election.

And no 1 am halts in counting, either.

 

[lennypartiv]

I bet Democrat Steve Sweeney is in favor of election audits now.

I think the Republican won also. The Dems did some last-minute hunt for votes, and turned the R’s slight advantage into the D’s slight advantage.

Putin done it!!
