Just heard this on Stepanie Miller's show.
DO NOT ALLOW REPUBLICANS TO TAKE YOUR VOTE AWAY!
MAGA Republicans see the polls and they know they will LOSE.
Be safe New Jersey voters!

(973 posts)They are starting to compete with Fox News, to try and gain viewership from the 70+ Million Trumphumping MAGAots.....
Most all of the Rich, Republican, owned/operated Media in the entire U.S. so why wouldn't CNN join them?
If they don't.....Trump will just Sue them, and get them to pay him off, roll over to the right, just as he did most recently with CBS....etc

NEW: Multiple polling places temporarily closed Tuesday morning in Northern New Jersey after precincts received emailed bomb threats later deemed to be not credible, prompting election officials to direct some voters to other polling places.

(973 posts)about these callers being tracked down, arrested, and sentenced to prison?
I suppose that there aren't enough FBI agents, given that they all are walking the streets in D.C. and doing important things like picking up trash, and raking grass in parks....

(1,949 posts)Early this morning, law enforcement responded to threats that were received by email involving certain polling places in Bergen, Essex, Mercer, Middlesex, Monmouth, Ocean, and Passaic counties, the state Office of the Attorney General said in a statement Tuesday.
Law enforcement officers have responded at each affected polling place, and they have worked swiftly to secure these polling locations and ensure the safety of every voter. Some of these polling locations have already re-opened to the public. At others, voters will be directed to a nearby polling location to cast their ballot.

I mean, his full throated(pun intended) endorsement of Andrew Cuomo is a hint in the NYC Mayor's race.

(21,293 posts)It's probably been more than 25 years since I've dialed *69.
Even the term "dialed" is archaic. Most Gen-Zers (such as my child) have never seen a phone with a dial.
just look at Trump, he has a long, fur lined hose, to 69 himself......LOL granted, it's only 3/8" inside diameter.....

Lots of people voted early so that should help.

(366 posts)there to be bomb threats, especially in Democratic majority districts. These threats happened in '24, they're happening now, and you better believe they will happen again in '26.
This is a form of voter suppression, and if we are to save our freedoms and democracy, we need to find an effective way to resist these acts of terror.
This is becoming an ever more frequently used Republican voter suppression tactic. Officials really need to come up with a better way of dealing with it than shutting down polling places for most of the day. It's especially insideous since Republicans are committed the outlawing every voting method except in person election day voting, and then they try to get all the polling places in Democratic areas closed on election day.

(4,515 posts)most people voted early.
I passed a polling place this morning and there were hardly any cars parked there. Usually it's overflow traffic all day long.
This is the first year I voted early and the polling place was very busy.
Thank goodness for early and mail in voting.

(39,410 posts)Even in a blue state like New Jersey (where many areas are blue) . We have the same problem in Pennsylvania, with a few solid-blue counties and the rest are half & half, or not blue at all. The County Election officials must all follow the laws of our state, regardless of their personal political convictions.
If they can't do that, they have no business applying for the job.
This is a big THANK-YOU to all County Elections officials because the vast majority are good Americans!
