Unknown group #racist nj.com
An unknown group sent anti-Indian and anti-Chinese campaign mailers to homes in Edison proclaiming "Make Edison Great Again" and calling for the deportation of two Asian school board candidates.
The postcards say, "The Chinese and Indians are taking over our town. Chinese school! Indian school! Cricket fields! Enough is enough."
Above those words are pictures of board of education candidates Jerry Shi and Falguni Patel. The bottom of their photos are partially covered by the words "deport" in what's presumably an image of a passport stamp.
The ads don't identify the group that paid for them, which violates state election law.
The back of the postcard reads:
"Stop the overcrowding! Stop taking over our sports fields! Stop the McMansions! Stop the multiple families living in the same house! Stop wasting school holiday! Stop the outsiders!
"Let's take back Edison and our schools!"
