Press Release From the Office of the Gloucester County Clerk :
This office was contacted by the Gloucester County Prosecutor’s Office in regard to an investigation against several individuals that were shown on a social media video rummaging through recycling containers outside of the Gloucester County Office of Elections on the evening of November 3, 2021. These individuals were incorrectly claiming election fraud. The materials in the recycling containers were not viable for any electoral use.
The Gloucester County Clerk’s Office states, on November 3, 2021, staff members put the following items into sealed boxes and placed them in the recycling containers:
• One box of outdated yellow business reply mail envelopes (specific to the 2021 Primary Election)
• Three boxes of outdated instructional inserts illustrating how to complete and return a Vote by
Mail ballot (specific to the 2021 General Election)
• One bag of shredded green certificate envelopes from some undeliverable 2021 General Election ballots that were returned by the USPS and spoiled ballots that were brought in by constituents for replacement due to ballots being torn, damaged, or incorrectly marked. These items have no viable election use and were discarded in accordance with the law.
