Local Race Flips After Investigation Finds Voting Machine Irregularities

More than two months after the November elections, an error has been found in a voting tabulation system that appears to have changed the results of one New Jersey contest.

The results of six voting districts in four municipalities will be impacted, according to the New Jersey Globe.

In an Ocean City Township school board race, Jeffrey Weinstein who in the initial results trailed Steve Clayton by 20 votes, 3,523 to 3,503, is now leading by one vote.

The issue has been traced to equipment supplied by Election Systems and Software.

The Globe report said that the problem was not flagged by the vendor but was discovered during an internal investigation by the Monmouth County Board of Elections.

The company said an “isolated incident occurred due to a human procedural error. An audit of the system yielded this information.”

“In July of 2022, upon request, ES&S technicians were sent to Monmouth County to investigate reports of slow performance on the county’s internal network. During troubleshooting, technicians uninstalled and reinstalled the county’s election management software,” Katina Granger, a representative for ES&S said.
