The error during the November election in Monmouth County occurred when votes were uploaded from a USB flash drive, according to a statement from Election Systems and Software, the county’s election system vendor. It altered the results of a school board race in Ocean Township, a community of about 28,000, according to the 2020 Census. “A technician inadvertently loaded votes twice in error,” said ES&S spokesperson Katina Granger. “Typically our software blocks this from happening.
CNN has reached out to Monmouth County and the county’s board of elections for details on what led to the data review request, and the New Jersey attorney general’s office for details about the county’s next steps. The election was non-partisan, with the top three finishers out of six candidates on the ballot winning seats. Steve Clayton finished third in November, with 3,523 votes; Jeffrey Weinstein finished fourth with 3,503 votes.
