The only thing Rats do quietly is cheat.

Scotch Plains is too nice to be full of Rats. No Hillary signs in my NJ town. Lots of Trumps.

NJ could have been in play. I have seen next to no Hillary signs and I travlwl all over state. 2008 and 2012 had Obama signs everywhere. Smattering of Trump signs. Most people I know that will vote for Trump are very quiet about it but they way outnumber the Hillary voters I know.

Come on. Camden will probably be D+20 or more. The polls are averages. Camden then will be offset by Burlington County which will probably be R+10 or so. But you are right, if state-wide it ends up D+2 she’s toast

Delran Twp. Burlington County.
About a 60-40 Dem/Rep ratio.
Voted at 6:30am, no line and was only the 6th person to vote.
Later I had work at several homes in Medford & Shamong Twp’s which are heavily Republican but sparsely populated.They all had voted and said that there were lines and heavier turnout that past elections.

North Carolina and Florida have become infested with pushy, arrogant liberals who have moved down to these beautiful states for the good life. They are destroying these states just as they have destroyed the northeast.

I voted at 8:30 this morning(small town in Atlantic County - polls opened at 7)They have three lines to sign in, my line was S-Z, and I was number 61. Both other lines were about the same.

I went shopping and drove past three different polling stations, all of them packed.

The most recent poll done by the local university had Trump winning South Jersey including Camden.

INCLUDING CAMDEN??? Wow. If that were to happen, I would think NJ could just go Trump. If...

If Trump can take NJ the Rats will be squealing.
Especially considering the trick bag Gov Crispy Creme got himself into over Bridgegate.

Especially, seeing he just passed the gas tax without which we would not have ballot question 2. Ballot questions 2 alone will incread Rat turnout....

It’s not a referendum on the tax itself but merely a choice for how the funds are allocated. I doubt many people really care.
That being said, the state is filled with brain dead Dims anyway and our votes will count towards the popular vote.

Its an attempt to take control of the newfound winfall of money the recent gas tax increase will bring about. Wouldn’t even have been put on the ballot had there been NO gas tax increase, IMHO.

Voted in Monmouth County thirty minutes ago - steady stream of people coming in and out. Ran into a friend bringing his daughter to vote for the first time but he was there in the morning and said it was a 60 minute wait - something I have never seen or heard of at our polling place.

On the way home I switched over to WFAN when Rush went to a commercial and Mike Fransayso was discussing how important Trump's concession speech needs to be tonight. This ass is never right about anything and come tomorrow will deny the conversation ever took place.

#MAGA

I’m usually the first or second in line but not this morning. There were about 23 people ahead of me before the polling site even opened. That has never happened before. After I voted, I drove by polling stations in 2 neighboring towns (Hope and Blairstown) and the parking lots were jammed. (Warren County is strong Republican).

Here's the twist: New Jersey is one of 11 states (that include California, Hawaii, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, New York, Rhode Island, Vermont, Washington, plus D.C.) that award all of their Electoral Votes to the winner of the Popular Vote. For more info, check here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Popular_Vote_Interstate_Compact

Note that most (all?) of those states are Blue/Democratic (which is how that weird law got passed in those places anyway). They didn't want Bush/Gore to happen again.

However, what happens if Trump gets the Popular Vote? Then, ALL of those states (not just New Jersey) would turn Red/Republican. Imagine if extra votes in Texas ended up helping to flip New Jersey. Wouldn't that be something? That would more than make up for losing any Battleground state.

So, if you really want Trump to win New Jersey (and those others), he needs to get the Popular Vote. That means everywhere. It's up to everyone in both Blue and Red states. Don't think you don't have to vote because your state is already determined, one way or the other. The more votes that Trump gets altogether, the more likely he'll win the whole thing.

So, what do you say, Freepers? Are you ready to Freep the vote (and tell everyone you know that their vote really does mean more than they think)?
