New Jersey has banned police officers from lingering around polling stations and ballot drop boxes on election days under a new law that advocates argued was needed to protect against voter intimidation.
Democratic Gov. Phil Murphy signed the Democratic-sponsored bill into law earlier in the week after it passed the Democratic-controlled state Legislature mostly along party lines. It says both plain-clothed or uniformed police need to keep at least 100 feet from polling stations or drop boxes.

For the life of me, I don't understand any law-abiding citizen being intimidated by a policeman standing nearby.

They want to make it easier for other people to intimidate voters. That and allow people to make multiple trips through the line.

How does a plainclothes officer intimidate voters? Methinks they don't want the henhouse minded by any other than the foxes.

So how can police officers in New Jersey ever vote in person? Are police officers restricted to mail-in ballots? Like San Francisco and New York's 14th congressional district which elected AOC, New Jersey is a political cesspool.

I don't care if there are a hundred cops around me I wouldn't be 'intimidated' because I didn't break the law. This tells me the voters who are intimidated must have done something wrong to fear law enforcement. That must be a 'black thing' or they plan on cheating at the polls and don't want to get caught. Black Panthers are welcome. FNJ

How long will this charade continue? bLACK openly defy the police when committing crimes, and appear regularly in videos where they bang their fists on police cars while rioting, or hop up and jump on the cars while the cops do nothing. They contact police officers all the time at their parole meetings, and there's no way there are not cops stationed at welfare offices. And yet we pretend that these same bLACK people are so meek that they'll shy away from voting if a cop is there.

I agree, we must keep the police away from the polls, they're intimidating the democrat fraudsters from dumping tens of thousands of illegal votes. Democrats and ethics have always had a tenuous relationship but this is getting ridiculous.

I can see how an Amish citizen in their horse drawn wagon might be intimidated by police in their loud vehicles. Could spook the horses.

I think it speaks to the intelligence of your typical democratic voter. One of the oldest tricks in the book is to drop off a postcard purportedly from the registrar of voters.
Dear voter,
Please make sure all your warrants and attachments are cleared up before coming to vote as police will be there to check.

Just how many Republicans hold elected office in New Jersey anyway? This is just an open door for voter fraud, but is it aimed at Republicans or 'moderate' Democrats? Either way New jersey is about to elect more Communists. Once the Communists reach critical mass, the first thing to be done is replace NJ law enforcement with their own 'police'.

We know that this is BS. As others have said, unless you're a criminal, there is no reason to be intimidated by a cop at a polling place or drop box.

The dem pols are supporting voter fraud with everything they can throw at it! At this their low point, voter fraud is their only tool. Everything they are trying to do now but exposes their desperation due to the fact that America rejects their destructive agenda for this Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave!! There is no joy in Leftyland.

These are your pathetic, sick, communist democrats at work. They will pass anything to ensure voter fraud. You see, the last election was to close for them. Now they must ensure that elections will never be that close again. Welcome to North Korea and your leader Kim Jong- Murphy.

Democrats know a large portion of their voting base have active warrants out for their arrest.

I have voted since I was 18 at a Brooklyn public school. . I'm into my 70's now and have never seen a cop at a polling place. Of course we were a civilized country most of those years.
And 'drop boxes'?

If you don't believe that the democrats cheat in elections you are either dumb, naive or dishonest. They bastardized voting procedures in the 2020 elections, they don't want voter ID, they want mail-in votes and drop boxes all over the place, they don't want to clean up the voter rolls. They harvest votes. The democrats who are in charge of voting procedures are an illegal dishonest bunch...un-American. imo

In certain states democrats are going to win no matter what because too many people are lined up at the trough and many more are waiting in the cemetary. You just can't find a spot to get your nose in there, New Jersey is one, Pennsylvania, Illinois, California, you know the list.

NJ’s Progressive Fruitcake Gov. ‘Sanctuary Phil’ Murphy squeaked out a win after miraculously finding enough votes to overcome a strong showing from his Republican challenger. This close call obviously scared the heck out of Garden State Democrats who are now doing what they can to make cheating even easier.
