N.J. Democrats Fear A Christie Landslide Could Sweep Away Their Control of States Legislative


Gov. Chris Christie’s popularity is showing no signs of declining, Democrats in New Jersey are worried about more than just their uphill struggle in their quest to win the State House. They are concerned about what is shaping up to be a blowout at the top of the ticket in November. It is no wonder Democrats want to do all they can to minimize the damage by concentrating on retaining majorities in the States Senate and Assembly. Christie's approval rating was 74 percent in the latest Quinnipiac University poll. Democrats worry that Christie’s coat tails have the potential to sweep the Senate and possibly even the Assembly out from under them.  Read More

We wonder if that would really be a bad thing for the Citizens of New Jersey. Under this Democrat controlled Legislature and former Governor Corzine, taxes were raised on New Jersey's Taxpayers over 130 times. When Chris Christie took office the State was only a few months from insolvency. Chris Christie and his team have worked tirelessly since he took office to balance the budget without increasing taxes. He is currently the only one standing between New Jersey's already overburdened taxpayers and  the return to this Democrat controlled Legislatures penchant for tax increases and budget deficits.  

Meanwhile Democratic candidate Barbara Buono is the only Democrat Currently declared as running for Governor after State Senator Richard Cody and Newark Mayor Cory Booker both indicated they will not run. Buono has garnered an endorsement from the Ocean County Democrat organization. Buono has also been endorsed by the Democratic Party organizations in Somerset  and Monmouth counties. Democrats in Middlesex County, and Sussex County Democratic Chairman have informally pledged their support. If she wins her party's nomination, she would face an uphill battle against Chris Christie in November. Read More
