N.J. investigating freeholder for allegedly delivering election ballot of dead man, source says

A Mercer County freeholder is under investigation by the state Attorney General’s office on accusations he delivered a general election ballot for a man who died in late October, a law enforcement source told NJ Advance Media.

The freeholder, Samuel T. Frisby, did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

All registered voters in New Jersey were sent a mail-in ballot for this year’s general election, due to the coronavirus pandemic. Voters had the option of having a person deliver the ballot for them, called a “bearer.”
