Trucker who spent $153 on campaign BEATS longtime NJ Senate president

Underdog GOP candidate Ed Durr beat Democratic Senate President Steve Sweeney in South New Jersey's 3rd Legislative District by a razor thin margin of 52 percent of the vote to 48.

The Dems cannot accept Sweeney's defeat by a trucker.

Edit: More fuckery in NJ:

Sweeney isn’t claiming any such thing. He said that while the votes were being counted. It’s true he hasn’t conceded, but this quote came from before the election was called.

To put this in perspective: 12,000 votes is more than the number of pretty much any single municipality in the district, and most of those are red. Not to mention, Murphy and most of the Democratic leadership actually want his ass voted out.

Then again, who the hell cites a crappy British newspaper for election information in New Jersey?

The same people that have significant reason not to trust the media in their own country?

Yep; some of the least biased sources I've found for American politics are foreign outlets.

Like Skynews in Aussieland is great for more honest reporting on Trump and DC than most US outlets.

I know foreign papers/news their own bias, but when it comes to US news, I trust shit more when I see it in foreign outlets than when the source is domestic.

 

[Airedale260]

Large media, sure. Local papers that don’t have ties to the big corps? Much better for accuracy.

Besides, the Daily Mail freaked out a couple of months ago because of reports that the USCP was becoming a shadow secret police because they set up an office on the West Coast..when it in fact was set up to deal with the fact that they’d received a ton of threats against Members of Congress out west and in CA in particular, so it was significantly cheaper to put a couple officers/detectives out there rather than have them fly out of DC, rack up expenses for hotels or short-term rentals and other resources.

But again, Sweeney hasn’t claimed anything about finding 12,000 votes (edit: after the totals came in). Everyone needs to cool their jets.

I agree with you. Everyone should calm down until ALL of the votes have been counted & officially certified.

Howdy from the Alamo City. I see some folks in the Garden State are furious with Murphy winning reelection.

Has his opponent conceded yet?

Because we're over 56 faulty voting machines, and Project Veritas showed poll workers breaking the rules about letting foreign nationals vote.

There was electoral fuckery a foot in NJ, and if the opponent has not conceded, the race ain't over.

AFAIK, there’s been no concession yet.

They’re still counting mail in ballots and other holdouts, and there’s also the possibility that there will be a recount. So this may drag on for at least several more weeks.

If the NJ race was rigged, why did they let Sweeney lose an election to some random dude, and why was the overall race shown to be tight, despite no one expecting anything of the sort? Everyone thought it was going be like a 60-40 tilt in favor of the dems, why rig the results have it be a narrow win?

Gov race vs district race.

 

[Battlegrinder]

Gov race vs district race.

So? The GOP vastly overperformed expectations in both.

Put bluntly, people like you would likely be inclined to cry "rigged election" no matter what the results, so why not rig the race solidly toward the dems?

 

[Bigking321]

Because they thought they were safe and then had to scramble to rig some votes when it turned out it was going to be much closer than they thought?

It's not rocket science.

 

[Abhishekm]

To be fair who expected they were hated so much a Trucker who spent less in total than they did on straws would be preferred?

I'd like every race to be audited as SOP from now on, no matter the winner, so we know who and where rigging happens.

You are also ignoring the reports of faulty voting machines and the Veritas bid showing they were letting foreign nationals vote.

Obvious you've never tried going at sheets of paper with a machete. 🕵️‍♂️

I joke but forgery apparently isn't that hard to get away with either from what we've seen.
