As a result, the election went to the GOP gubernatorial candidate...by about 1800 votes.
A civil suit charging voter intimidation and harassment was brought against the GOP. Interestingly, the attorney for the GOP was Donald Trump's brother-in-law. In 1982, the New Jersey and national GOP signed a consent decree prohibiting them from engaging in such illegal activities until 12/01/2017.
Fast forward to now. Donald Trump is exhorting his trollish followers to watch polling places because it's "so important that you watch other communities", or "some other place", or "certain areas". "Other communities"..."certain areas"..."some other place"? Unless you've been sleeping through the last century of race relations in the US, or have just chosen to ignore the issue altogether, you'll realize that those phrase are euphemisms for minority communities.
Back to 1982. The consent decree signed by the national and New Jersey GOP will expire on 12/01/2017 unless they GOP is found to have violated that decree. In which case, the decree extends another 8 years, expiring in 2025. And the GOP desperately wants to get out from under that decree, and Reince Priebus spends hours in a corner, in a fetal position, rocking back and forth, every time Trump babbles about watching the polls in "other communities"..."certain areas"..."some other place". Keep up the good work Donnie.
Are you implying that a tad over 1800 illegal voters were scared away??
Why yes, seeing as how the dems are the ones always getting dead voters casting lots and voters voting more than once -I can see your point..
As the "live illegal voters"" doing corrupt crap would be scared of getting caught when seeing a heavy police presence.
You dem/libs always want to make it easy to vote illegally. That is because you champion lies and fantasy dreams about utopia and a coming socialist paradise..
ffing morons..... -Tyr
