A New Jersey shopper walked into Walmart and found the clothing aisles blocked off because selling them that day is illegal

Most Walmart stores sell just about everything seven days a week, but one corner of New Jersey still plays by rules written for a very different era. TikTok user @joselwees found that out on a Sunday trip to Walmart in Bergen County, where the clothing section was closed off to shoppers. His short video about it has drawn hundreds of thousands of views. In the clip, the creator explained that he is new to New Jersey and had no idea about the rule. He told viewers that in Bergen County it is illegal to sell clothes on a Sunday, so at Walmart, “they basically close off all the clothes.” The footage pans across racks of coats and other clothing that shoppers could see but could not buy that day. The creator ended the video by asking his followers for an explanation, saying “I need answers.” His caption was shorter and more pointed, calling the situation “petty,” while the on-screen text simply asked what was going on in Bergen County. The answer, as several commenters quickly explained, is a set of blue laws that has survived in the county for decades. Bergen County’s blue laws still ban Sunday clothing sales Bergen

Nellie Pou declares victory over Rosie Pino in NJ’s 9th District

Rep. Nellie Pou declared victory on Nov. 3 in her bid for a second term representing New Jersey’s 9th Congressional District, where Republicans had hoped to build on President Donald Trump’s narrow win two years earlier. The Democratic incumbent issued a statement at about 10 p.m. thanking voters after opening a large lead over Republican Rosie Pino, a Clifton councilwoman, in initial returns that included early voting and some mail-in ballots. Independent Terrisa Bukovinac also ran for the seat. “From the bottom of my heart, I want to thank the people of New Jersey’s Ninth District for the trust they have placed in me,” Pou said. Speaking by phone just a few minutes earlier as she traveled between campaign gatherings, Pou said she was optimistic about the returns but stopped short of declaring a win. “I do believe that we will be victorious, and the numbers are looking exceptionally good,” she told NorthJersey.com. Pou first won the seat in 2024 after the death of longtime Rep. Bill Pascrell Jr., defeating Republican Billy Prempeh by about 5 percentage points even as Trump narrowly carried the district. Democrats regained ground in the 2025 governor’s race in the district, which includes Paterson, Passaic
