Congressman Jeff Van Drew Statement on Governor Murphy Imposition of All Mail-In Voting

Contact: Scott Weldon (202)225-6572

MAYS LANDING- Today, Congressman Jeff Van Drew blasted the decision of Governor Murphy to require all voting this November General Election be done by mail. Any ballots cast in-person will be provisional, and not immediately counted.

“Governor Murphy is unilaterally threatening the integrity of this election. He continues to decide which science he agrees with and ignores what he does not; just yesterday, Dr. Anthony Fauci stated that in-person voting can be done safely,” said Congressman Van Drew. “Mail-in voting should be a part of a strategy to ensure safety, but allowing for a singular process that is time-consuming, unreliable and creates the potential for fraud is completely unacceptable.”
