“NEW JERSEY SECRETARY OF STATE REFUSES RECALL PETITION”
On January 11, 2010, Nina Mitchell Wells, a Democrat who was still the New Jersey Secretary of State at the time, issued a "final determination" letter saying that her office was refusing to accept a Notice of Intention to Recall and its accompanying Petition in the matter of the U.S. Senator Robert Menendez recall. Wells maintained that the recall provisions in the New Jersey Constitution conflict with the U.S. Constitution.[34]
The recall action against Robert Menendez was started by members of a Tea Party group in Sussex County, New Jersey. They are seeking judicial review of the determination from Nina Wells, requesting reversal of the "final determination" and an order directing the New Jersey Secretary of State to approve the Notice of Intention so the recall group can start collecting signatures.[34]
The Superior Court of New Jersey Appellate Division issued a motion to accelerate the appeal on January 14, 2010
* * * “NEW JERSEY RECALL PROCEDURE” * * *
Notice of intention
A recall committee of at least three registered voters is needed to initiate recall proceedings. This process may not begin until 50 days before the completion of the incumbent's first year of the current term in office. The recall committee must notify the appropriate election official of the names and addresses of at least three members of the recall committee. The election official accepting the petition will then review the notice of intention for compliance with statutory provisions, calculate the cost of a special election, and notify committee members of the acceptance or rejection of the notice, within three business days. The election official also notifies the incumbent of the notice of intention of recall within five business and publishes a notice of the recall effort.
Signature requirement
Upon approval of the petition, the recall committee and other registered voters in the jurisdiction of the recall election will solicit the signatures of other registered voters in that jurisdiction. The recall effort is limited to 320 days for a Governor or 160 days for other elected officials from the date of the notice of intention. The petition requires the signatures of 25% of the registered voters in the jurisdiction, as of the last general election.
Petition review
The election official reviewing the petition will then certify the number of signatures and determine validity within 10 days. If the petition is accepted, the election official will schedule the recall election.

Picture of the three union staff organizers returning to their car after getting off the bus. Notice the man on the right has several Yellow and Black signs in his left hand. He has the blue shirt. This was taken with my cell phone so it is not the greatest picture.

Bill Pascrells Townhall Handout Sept 3 2009.pdfRep. Bill Pascrell, Jr. (D-NJ-8) Town hall meeting was a disappointment today. After driving for over an hour with rush hour traffic after leaving work I arrived at 4:15 and followed town hall parking signs all the way across Montclair State University campus almost over as far as Route 46. (We were sent to the Ward Trucking Lot) Then we boarded a De Camp Charter Bus to be brought to the location of his town hall meeting. No, we were brought to Montclair State University, University Hall, 7th floor Conference Center, 1 Normal Ave. After going to the 7th floor and signing in with what questions you would like to ask, you then went into the auditorium only to find, no Congressman Pascrell. You were watching a teleconference of his town hall at MEMORIAL AUDITORIUM. MEMORIAL AUDITORIUM could hold 1,000 people and it was packed to capacity and the overflow was sent to University Hall, 7th floor Conference Center.
After about a half hour I along with a group of angry constituents left to find a bus back to the Ward parking lot. In the bus on the way back there three union staff organizers discussing how they had been going all over the state work on these issues.
I wonder how so many charter buses were available for the crowd. I wonder how the signs directing you to the parking locations went up so fast. I would say they were overwhelmed by the crowd and the fact that so many were put out by the poor planning to accommodate everyone well wait until you see how they accommodate you when you need healthcare.
A copy of a handout from the meeting is attached as a pdf file. It is still telling the lies that have already been explained as false; such as: More than 45 million Americans lack health care coverage. As we know this 45 million number is almost 4 times the actual numbers of from to 11 to 12 million lack health care coverage. We have 305 million people in the United States and we have a government that will destroy healthcare coverage for 293 million people to help the 11 to 12 million that we can agree need help. So 4.01% of the population should dictate the healthcare for 95.99 % of course that makes perfect sense. Where do I sign?

“MENENDEZ AND LAUTENBERG OF NJ”
Greetings Everyone,
NO TOWN HALL MEETINGS where held by these two Senator’s, I can only guess that answering to NJ residents face to face was not important enough to either of them, especially with all that has been happening in government, that NJ residents wanted to question one on one in a public forum and are entitled honest answers too!
I am sure they knew that their where going to be some very tough questions asked by the NJ residents that they did not want to answer? Not having TOWN HALL MEETINGS for the benefit of the New Jersey residents that they each represent was a slap in the face and an insult to each and every one of the legal residents, and inexcusable!

Rep. Pascrell: Town Hall Meeting
Many Members of Congress are hosting town hall meetings and other events in their districts during the congressional recess. One of the most powerful things any citizen can do for the cause of reducing overall immigration is to attend a public forum featuring their Member of Congress and raise the issue of immigration.
Rep. Rep. Bill Pascrell will hold a town hall forum on September 3 from 4-6 pm in the Montclair State University’s Conference Center, 1 Normal Avenue in Montclair. Please call (973) 523-5152 or click here for more information. Please attend if you can and be sure to check out his terrible NumbersUSA grade before attending.
