It’s a new political world.  We the People might start to mean something I think.

Well done sir!

Awesome.  The guy that wrote Freakonomics determined that the candidate who spends the most money is not why they win. The candidate with the most appeal wins. It’s easy to see why Durr won.

As an NJ resident, this is brilliant. I despised that pig.

Quote
New Jersey state Senate President Steve Sweeney is not conceding in a race The Associated Press called for Edward Durr, a virtually unknown Republican challenger, on Thursday morning.

“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 POLITICO. “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, who as Senate president is the state’s second-most powerful elected official, was down more than 2,000 votes to Durr,a truck driver who says he spent less than $10,000 on the race.

If the Communist fraudulently wins, there should be consequences.  All legal of course.    ::)

I read somewhere he spent $153 on the primary and about $5000 on the election.

Damn cheaters.

They were famous for "discovering" accidentally uncounted ballots in Broward County Florida for years and years.

The criminal communist party of Florida would report 99.57% counted, then magically find just enough ballots to change the outcome to suit them.

Once the scanners were put in place they haven't been able to alter the final totals as easily.

I understand the NJ gubernatorial election went almost like a replay of 2020. The Republican was ahead that evening, counting shut down and by the next day they “found” a bunch of extra ballots. Just enough to give it to the Dem. Did I read that on this forum or somewhere else?

 You are correct.   They (NJ Dems) weren't expecting the anointed Gov to have a struggle holding office. However, it became apparent as the evening wore on that an injection of ballots would be needed.
