dont know if nj law is different from il, but i’ve been a judge here. they drilled it into us that we own the polling place and can kick anyone but someone actively voting, and certified poll watchers the hell out. no fucking shenanigans, period.
i’m in chgo. they dont station cops, but the beat cops keep an eye, and treat any call from a polling place as top priority.
i’ve never had to call, but i’ve tossed a few assholes.
