The GOP primary in the 6th district just keeps getting uglier. The race is between Ernesto Cullari, a newcomer in New Jersey politics, and Anna Little, a name we have all come to know very well in the last few years. Little won a shock victory in 2010 over Diane Gooch in the same district….
Another day, another poll. This time our friends from Quinnipiac are weighing in for the month of May with a slew of new information to pour over. This time, very little of it was surprising, until you look at the sample demographics. Quinnipiac finds that Governor Christie is still very popular at home. In fact,…
So April tax revenue is in and it does not paint a particularly pretty picture. Senator Sarlo is predicting that Christie’s estimates are off by nearly $1 billion dollars for next year, based on the current numbers. Thankfully no one ever really listens when Senator Sarlo speaks about things he does not understand, which happens…
The video below shows how truly delusional Hollywood stars can be, Save Jerseyans, until they are faced with the reality of what they preach. On French television, Will Smith is asked about paying higher taxes in the United States. He gives some trite and canned speech about paying higher taxes as a patriotic duty because…
Trenton was all abuzz today with word that Governor Christie and Senator Sweeney would be holding a joint press conference today on an alleged compromise to their competing tax cut plans. As you will remember, Governor Christie seeks a 10 percent income tax cut to all New Jerseyans, while Sweeney wants a 10 percent cut…
Sometimes this is what happens when you make a single district too strong for one party or another. While the national debate, even among many Democrats, is focused on way to cut spending and begin to shrink the deficit and debt, the two career politicians vying to represent the new, solidly blue 9th district are…
New Jersey Democrats just keep thinking up ways to buy votes and protect their strongholds. Assemblyman Reed Gusciora is sponsoring a bill that has reportedly been kicked around the state house since 2006 (and never voted on for obvious reasons) that would pay police officers, fire fighters, public school teachers, and sanitation workers $10,000 to…
It seems that a few years back when the DNC decided to hold their national convention in Charlotte, NC they did not foresee the embarrassment that would come. Let us be fair though, a lot of it was completely unforeseeable. For example, how were they to know that the state party would be involved in…
These days I feel like Bob Menendez might wish that he was “someone else.” According to the latest poll by Fairleigh Dickinson/Public Mind, being “someone else” would probably give him a better shot at reelection. The poll found that Senator Menendez would actually lose to an unnamed candidate 37 to 30 percent. The biggest reason…
Ok Save Jerseyans, I am a man of my word. I made a bet with fellow contributor James Beattie that I thought was a sure thing, and I was wrong. I literally bleed orange and black, and have my entire life. This post was incredibly painful to write, but here goes nothing. Two nights ago…
Is it just me or does it seem like friends of Senator Menendez have a tough time keeping their hands clean lately . . . Today Joseph Bigica, an insurance broker based in Franklin Lakes, NJ plead guilty to allegations of both campaign finance fraud and tax evasion. According to NJ.com, Bigica made illegal campaign…
The Norcross name has been synonymous with the Rutgers Rowan Merger since the plan was first announced in January of this year. Senator Donald Norcross represents the 5th Legislative District which includes Camden City and by extension Rutgers Camden’s campus. His involvement has included a drive to find a compromise between the initial takeover plan…
