To all those saying an online petition needs to be circulated: that’s not how recalls work. Online petitions for anything related to elections are not valid under NJ law. You would need the real, physical signatures of over 40000 registered Jersey City voters. Anyone who knows anything about the sort of logistics, people, money required to accomplish that knows that no one has those kinds of resources or networks right now.

Should an attempt be made? Yes, because the mere exercise itself will cause people to get involved, sort of “if you build it they will come”.

It’s a lot harder than it looks, if it were easy it would have already been done. However, it’s not impossible and it’s worth it even if such an effort were to fail.

"Should I just not give my ID next time?" You are out of your mind worrying now, and yet you say "next time"? Did you not learn anything? Pay the fare, or you deserve what you get.

I was only including community oriented activities, not businesses like the kayak school or jetski rental there. But that raises an interesting question, is there a master list anywhere of nonprofit clubs and volunteer organizations in the area? That would be a handy thing to add to our FAQ.
