The Philadephia Inquirer ran an editorial last week arguing FOR Gabriela Mosquera’s admission to the New Jersey State Assembly. We’re still waiting for the NJ Supreme Court’s final word on the matter. The Inquirer’s argument? Who cares if her candidacy violated applicable state residency laws!? Everyone’s doing it… Although Mosquera, born in Ecuador, has lived […]

There’s going to be plenty of recriminations on the GOP side of the aisle today, Save Jerseyans. In truth, there were plenty of factors at play yesterday that resulted in a net zero gain at the legislative level. Here’s a big one. You’ll remember that Rosenthal, a professor at Rutgers, was the tiebreaker appointed to adjudicate […]

ELECTION NIGHT RESULTS THREAD: Polls are closed! Results will begin to trickle in now. Politicker has a good list of links to the county clerk websites where you can find rolling vote tallies… NJ.com will be a little slower but they’ve gone through the trouble to break it down by district for those of you […]

Did you vote Republican yet today? If not, then shut you laptop, put down your coffee, and head out to your polling place right now! However, if you haven’t totally made up your mind yet (which I find hard to believe at this point) you should take some time to watch all of our Election […]

Every campaign cycle sees its fair share of vandalism, Save Jerseyans. Last year, our very Brian McGovern saw his car egged and his tires slashed in the final hours of a hyper-competitive local race down here in machine-controlled Camden County (Brian’s candidate ultimately won, btw, but Brian’s paint job not). Vandalism sucks, and it’s wrong, but it happens. Comes with the […]

Pundits on both sides of the aisle are trying to gauge Governor Christie’s “seriousness” as his party battles for legislative gains in super-close LD2 and LD38. One powerful indication? If there’s one thing the man is serious about in this word it’s his lovely wife, Save Jerseyans, and she’s personally headed to LD38 this week […]

Here’s Governor Christie’s LD38 TV ad in support of John Driscoll, one of four running as part of a large $500,000 buy spread over two media markets. Watch, and then comment below: httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=boX1bj5RYxQ

Historically low voter turnout on November 8th means virtually anything is possible, Save Jerseyans. A well-organized “off-year” campaign can be expected, within reason, to overcome significant voter registration and campaign finance disadvantages by mobilizing and turning out their superiorly-enthusiastic base on Election Day. The folks who only vote in presidential years are sitting this one […]

Even though he is not running for President, our Governor still has some traveling to do. This Thursday Governor Christie will be leaving the the early-wintered New Jersey for Mississippi. Once there he will be stumping for Phil Bryant. Bryant is the Republican Gubernatorial candidate who will be replacing Haley Barbour in the Governor’s Mansion. […]

Here is yet ANOTHER potentially huge Democrat ethics scandal that the media isn’t discussing, Save Jerseyans. The Obama Administration’s ongoing entanglement with the solar scam artists at Solyndra is an excellent example of the corruption that inevitably arises from (1) big government’s collaboration with (2) far-left environmental ideologues. Now we may have an example even closer […]

Steve Lonegan often makes my blood boil, Save Jerseyans. He also does the “right” thing, quits scalping allegedly impure Republicans, and kicks some bad guy butt from time to time. We’ve learned that the Bogota Bomber, vis-à-vis his organization AFP-NJ, is dropping hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of TV/Radio on the heads of five […]

Diane Allen (R-Edgewater Park) has served New Jersey’s 7th Legislative District in the State Senate since 1998. And since 1998, Save Jerseyans, she’s served alone without any Republican district mates on the Assembly side. 14 years is an awful long time! But Senator Allen is convinced that 2011 will be a different story. State Republicans […]

When Cherry Hill’s nine year Democrat mayor Bernie Platt decided not to seek reelection in April, the Camden County Democrat apparatus anointed Chuck Cahn to take his place at the helm. Cahn is a well-heeled businessman with plenty to talk about it in this wickedly terrible economy, but his primary campaign pledge has been to […]

We’ve been pounding the pavement, kissing babies, logging phone calls and staking lawn signs in the Garden State’s most contested legislative districts.

Those Save Jerseyans dutifully following us on Twitter may have already encountered an aggressive, pleasantly plump yet perversely lovable character named Robert C. “Bob” Brown. On the 2011 ballot, Bob Brown is a Democrat candidate for State Senate in New Jersey’s 12th Legislative District. Behind a computer keyboard, he is an obsessive tweeter who probably spends more […]
