From 1010WINS:

Voter records are being broken in New Jersey this Election Day.

The secretary of state says there are 631,512 newly registered voters. That sets a record of more than 5.4 million who can vote.

Of those, 134,158 are newly registered Democrats, 41,950 Republicans and 454,711 are unaffiliated. The remaining 693 registered under third parties.

The Garden State also has received a record 287,475 absentee ballot applications.

More from 1010WINS:

Heavy voter turnout caused long lines at polling locations across New Jersey, and state officials reported an "extraordinarily'' high number of voters being turned away because of registration problems.

The state Public Advocate's Office said many voters were being turned away from the polls because they were told they aren't registered.

There also were scattered problems with voting equipment, and a judge rejected a request to extend polling hours in one of New Jersey's largest counties.

Carmine Casciano, the superintendent of elections in Essex County, said 14 machines had to be replaced countywide Tuesday morning, half of the them due to poll worker error.

At least three machines were down in Newark, one in Millburn and one in Caldwell. The rest of the problems were scattered throughout both urban and suburban voting districts. Casciano said some poll workers inadvertently turned machines off while they were running because they were unsure how to operate them.

The other machines had to be replaced due to unspecified malfunctions, Casciano said. All polling sites were working properly by early afternoon.

The American Civil Liberties Union of New Jersey reported that some voters in Hudson, Camden, Essex, Mercer, Middlesex and Monmouth counties were improperly asked to provide identification in order to vote. The ACLU has 175 volunteer poll monitors and attorneys available to assist voters at most county courthouses.

ACLU New Jersey director Deborah Jacobs said voters should only be asked for ID if they are voting for the first time at a polling place and did not provide it when they registered.

Jacobs also said her offices received complaints of poll workers distributing emergency ballots when they should be handing out provisional ones to voters whose names didn't make the printed rolls in time.

If that county gets it right so consistently, why are the rest of us wasting our time? Let's just let them pick the president from now on.

Tue. 11/4/08 8:22pm From: Wes

Re: Hornet Montana....isn't it funny how they always tell us that half the country votes, people don't take advantage of their right to vote, etc....yet when people turn out in higher numbers than they are used to the system crashes because of overload? No, America is not ready for change. A lot of rich white people worked very hard to get it the way it is today..

Tue. 11/4/08 8:23pm From: em2

Jeez, this song is scary...

Tue. 11/4/08 8:24pm From: em2

If Obama gets as much as a scratch on him, there'll be riots...

Tue. 11/4/08 8:28pm From: Wes

A nation without a good ole fashioned riot every now and then is scary to me. No riots for 50-100 years means everyone is scared, on drugs, with the blinds pulled down.

Tue. 11/4/08 8:32pm From: em2

Francis E. Dec style, huh, Wes?

Tue. 11/4/08 8:37pm From: Hornet Montana

Virginia local news = some mentally handicapped older lady that has stood on the side of the road with her radio and hoola-hoop for YEARS got tazered by some asshole pig and it was caught on video. I haven't been that mad in a while.

Tue. 11/4/08 8:52pm From: St.Even Denver

I was bribed by Starbuck's to vote.

Tue. 11/4/08 8:54pm From: Doctor B.

Wes - About what you said about riots (sorry Homeland Security, only kidding): Don't the ones surrounding the Rodney King verdict and the assassination of George Moscone and Harvey Milk count?

Tue. 11/4/08 8:56pm From: ALF of Hip Hop Slam

Come on VA! Hurry up and send the peeps the exit poll numbers!

Tue. 11/4/08 9:01pm From: St.Even Denver

anybody know the percentage of WFMU listeners who voted for MCCAIN??

Tue. 11/4/08 9:01pm From: ALF of Hip Hop Slam

ENNNNNNNGLISHHHHHH!!!!! DO YOU SPEAK IT?! LOL!

Tue. 11/4/08 9:03pm From: Wes

Doc - they count, of course, but not in the big picture, they were all local California issues...and what really changed? Dianne Feinstein became powerful in CA politics...big deal. The Moscone/Milk "riot" wasn't even really a riot...it was just a protest that got out of hand. Perhaps Revolution would be a better choice of words for first post. As far as Homeland Security goes, screw 'em. Their image of all-seeing, all-powerful presence is a facade. We can only hope the next president abolishes that fiasco. Doubt it though.

Tue. 11/4/08 9:05pm From: paul

FUCK DUBYA! FUCK PALIN AND McCAIN! There you go Billy! I finally said it!

Tue. 11/4/08 9:14pm From: Parq

One good thing about Bush is, he made us appreciate Reagan's subtle nuances.

Tue. 11/4/08 9:16pm From: ALF of Hip Hop Slam

I'm not going to stop cutting up Dubya! Now I'm going to add Palin! HEHEHE!!!

Tue. 11/4/08 9:17pm From: Jessica

If anything, Bush II, Reagan Era Boogaloo has been pretty good for art, music, literature, etc. dissidence. That said, I kind of look forward to finding a real job [touch wood] [heh] and paying income tax again, come January 20.

Tue. 11/4/08 9:40pm From: Daniel

I just finished rigging a strobe/siren connected to my laptop (and a blue "Hope Light"). The siren goes off when a candidate wins (and turns off the lights in my room). If Obama wins, the Hope Light goes off. I hope it works...
