New Jersey voter registration final pre-election update

While it'd be a bit overstated to say that New Jersey Democrats are in trouble because of the final voter registration figures, it isn't overstated to say that Democrats shouldn't worry about this year's election. This morning, the New York Post reported "The number of registered Republicans in New Jersey grew by nearly 31,000 this year — while the number of registered Democrats dropped by more than 11,000, new data show. Democrats still hold the overall edge in the Garden State, with a total of 2.5 million registered voters compared to about 1.6 million registered Republicans and 2.3 million unaffiliated voters."

Numerically speaking, that's still a significant lead for Democrats. The things that Democrats should worry about are the trend and the fact that Scott Presler is spearheading the NJ voter registration drive. These aren't things that are strengthening the NJ Democrat Party.

The fact that NJ Democrat registration dropped by 11,000 signifies a drop in the Democrats' message popularity, which, in turn, signifies lower voter enthusiasm. That's only part of the problem, though. The bigger problem is that NJ GOP registration increased by 31,000. This is just speculation on my part but I'm wondering if a significant, increased, number of independents aren't planning on voting GOP. People love voting for a winner.

Almost 8:00 minutes into this video, a NJ social worker said something that I've said multiple times:

She said "We are not ATMs!" She said that while talking about illegal aliens getting a ton of benefits. That's bad enough. This report multiplies the Democrats' miseries:

The voter registration drive gave the NJ GOP momentum to build off. This report about early voting totals multiplies the Democrats' miseries. While it'd be wrong to say that the NJ gubernatorial is over, Democrats appear to be fighting an uphill fight. I'd rather be in the NJ GOP's position.

Tim Walz's hostile work environment at DHS

Image
It isn't a secret that Tim Walz is running for a third straight term as Minnesota's governor. What's been a secret up until this tweet appeared is that Tim Walz's Deparment of Human Services is a hostile work environment. According to the tweet, "Tim Walz is utterly dishonest, malicious at heart & has dangerous intent. The 'folksy' public image Tim Walz portrays is not even remotely what he is like to work with. Despite repeated warnings about fraud, Tim Walz opted to ratchet up the retaliation and silence any ethical voices. Besides fraud, Tim Walz has allowed agencies to spend thousands, possibly millions on retaliation efforts to scare, threaten, and silence concerned employees." The tweet continues "Worst of all, despite unprecedented funds awarded or appropriated to DHS, our agency is now a hollow shell of incompetency as our programs have been destroyed & most ethical staff have left." Don't think that this much fraud happ...

Has Sue Ek come face-to-face with DFL hijinks?

Apparently, Minnesota state and county employees aren't that attentive to details. Last night, a frequent reader of this blog sent me a statement from House Speaker-designate Lisa Demuth, R-Cold Spring ." She issued the following statement regarding vote tabulation errors, malfunctions, and discrepancies that have taken place in Sherburne and Scott Counties: The errors and discrepancies we've seen this cycle are intolerable and unacceptable. A free and fair election demands sunlight on the process. These incidents fuel distrust and raise questions about the integrity and accuracy of election results. Without an opportunity to observe or respond Sherburne County added newly-found votes to the total. Just a day later, Scott County announced an unspecified "ballot distribution error" and "ballot scanning malfunction" that triggered an abrupt re-scan of more than 20,000 ballots. There was less than two hours notice between the public announcement and the be...

BREAKING NEWS: counterfeit ballot alert in Minnesota

How Difficult Should it be to Get a Ballot? By John W. Palmer November 4, 2024 Securing an official ballot for your ward and precinct normally requires registration to vote and either showing up at a polling place or securing an absentee ballot. Ballot security is a cornerstone of an election free of fraud. When the tailgate of a vehicle was left open and unattended revealing a large stack of blank ballots, Minnesotans were appalled. Imagine how you would feel when you learn that all it takes to get a reproducible ballot for your ward and precinct is to download a file from a government website. In Stearns and several other Minnesota counties, imagination is not needed. Right now, all you have to do is go to Minnesota’s Secretary of State’s website and download a file. Go to this website and select “Get a sample ballot”. Then enter your zip code and address and your ballot appears. Now you are able to download the ballot as a PDF file. Once you have the PDF file you can print as many ...
