New Jersey - get out and vote today!



http://www.nj.com/opinion/index.ssf/2017/11/do_you_plan_to_vote_on_tuesday.html

Tuesday is Election Day, but your vote may count more than usual.

A recent Monmouth University poll estimates that about 38 percent of New Jersey's registered voters will participate in the election, the lowest ever for a New Jersey governor's race. Turnout was 40 percent in the last governor's race, when Christie was re-elected by a landslide in 2013.

The top contenders to succeed Christie are Democrat Phil Murphy, a former U.S. ambassador to Germany, and Kim Guadagno, the current lieutenant governor. There are also five other independent candidates running for governor.

The poll found that a majority of voters still don't have a clear idea of either candidate's political views

We need to get a head count in our tiny borough (4500 people total so fewer voters when you include kids and foreign nationals). So - after 5 PM I'll get my sticker but we can gage who needs help getting to the polls in this evening!
