New Jersey's Post-Election Audit Bill Goes to the Governor!

Howard Stanislevic

January 8, 2008

...today at 1:06 AM, at the end of a grueling 12-hour lame-duck session, the New Jersey General Assembly made history by passing A2730/S507, the state's landmark post-election audit bill, by a bi-partisan vote of 53 to 19.

The bill -- which is the first in the nation to require hand counts of enough votes to confirm the outcomes reported by electronic vote-counting systems independently of software -- now goes to Governor Corzine for his signature.

4. Kick? Kick? Is that all you have to say?
You New Yorkers just let a bunch of Jersey drivers beat you to decent audit legislation. And all you have to say is, "kick".

:D
