Over 1600 uncounted ballots from July primary in New Jersey just found in “mislabeled” bin

Here’s another reason that mail-in voting sucks:

NBC NEW YORK – Officials have counted more than 1,600 ballots from New Jersey’s July primary that were found last week in a “mislabeled” bin.

The 1,666 ballots from Sussex County were placed in a “secure area” at the county election office and were not discovered until Thursday, the New Jersey Herald reported.

After notifying the state of the error, the remaining votes were counted Saturday, said Board of Elections Administrator Marge McCabe. She said the newly tallied votes “did not change the outcome” of any races.

“The Board of Elections is confident that all ballots received have been processed and the security of all the ballots has remained in place,” McCabe said.

A majority of county residents voted by mail during the coronavirus pandemic and the county election board temporarily relocated to Sussex County Community College to count the votes while social distancing.

It was not clear how the ballots were placed in the mislabeled bin.

Sure it isn’t clear. I bet nobody knows how this could have possibly happened.

This is exactly the kind of thing you can expect to happen in November with these Democrat states pushing unsolicited mail-in voting.

Ballots for Trump will be put in some “mislabeled” bin in a dumpster somewhere and they’ll never be counted. Pro tip: Don’t be surprised if there’s a sudden increase in dumpster fires in the days after the election.
