📰 News we're reading
• High school girls soccer standings, statistics and area power rankings (through Oct. 18) (trentonian.com) — Trenton High’s girls soccer team is still searching for its first win, sitting at 0-10 overall and 0-6 in Colonial Valley Conference Valley Division play. Area standings highlight Steinert and Princeton Day as division leaders, while detailed scoring and goalkeeping stats showcase standout players across Mercer County programs. These rankings shape seeding and expectations heading into late-season tournaments. 
• NJ woman charged with illegally voting in 2024 primary (wpst.com) — State officials are under pressure to fix New Jersey’s voter registration system after thousands of noncitizens were mistakenly added to the rolls and a Union County woman was charged with illegally voting. Gov. Mikie Sherrill, recently appearing at Union Baptist Church in Trenton, insists the problem stems from a Motor Vehicle Commission software error, while Republicans argue the issues run deeper and predate that glitch.
