For the record...
The governor voted. On the machine. There was a glitch and it was fixed. Something like this is bound to happen every election. Just rotten luck it had to be that district.
I voted at 6:15 this morning in Essex County
no glitches, three people in line in front of me
Hudson County
This is Hudson County....shouldn't Corzine be voting more than once anyway...
