Collingswood liquor licensing referendum remains close

The Collingswood liquor licensing referendum remains close, with approval narrowly ahead. At publication time, results showed 3,506 "yes" votes and 2,322 "no" votes with some votes yet to be counted. If voters approve the referendum, select restaurants could serve alcohol to customers dining on site, ending the current requirement that diners bring their own alcoholic beverages. More on midterms: Van Drew concedes to Mullock, other South Jersey results rolling in Collingswood would initially issue four licenses. Interested businesses would need to apply. Officials would hold public meetings to set local rules on where and how licensed businesses could operate. Whether voters approve or reject the referendum, the outcome would remain in effect for at least five years before the issue could return to the ballot. At the time of publication, results are unofficial. This story may be updated as more results come in.

Statement from Commissioner Jeffrey Nash

The statement below is by Commissioner Jeffrey Nash on behalf of the Board of Commissioners in regard to the planned boycott of Jewish-owned businesses in Philadelphia. “The planned boycott of Jewish-owned businesses in Rittenhouse is an appalling act of hatred, bigotry, and intimidation towards the Jewish community. Furthermore, the decision to hold this boycott on the eve of the 88th anniversary of Kristallnacht, an infamous night of terror towards the Jewish community and in particular Jewish-owned businesses, is deeply disturbing.
