I’m originally from MA, but married NJ. I’ve never heard anyone from NJ say Joisy! You got a problem with that? ( joking)

I live in a small town in Essex County. (Glen Ridge - about 12 miles from NYC the way the birds fly.) A small town with gas lamps, and it used to be very conservative. However, in the past years there has been an influx of NYers, and the Dems have taken over. We are very much aware of the mess that Newark is in, and I will be curious as to the vote count in this town. Not that we would make any difference. In a Prez election-— fageddaboudit!

The voting place I went to covered several districts, and there were only a few people there. I am curious as to the turnout %. If the town has a lot of Dems, they probably don’t give a darn for Lonegan, even if they don’t like Booker.

Hi, there, 148. Your gas lamps still working, or converted to electric? We had them in East Orange, where I was born. The bigger kids were able to climb those rungs that the lamplighters used to use but we were too little. The first rung was really high off the ground. Regards to you and Mr. 148.
