Progressive Democrat Issue 52: NEW JERSEY FOCUS
Election Day Recap from New Jersey for Democracy. Time to celebrate!
Thank you everybody who worked so tirelessly on behalf of the DFA and NJ4D-endorsed candidates statewide! We had winners, we had near-misses, and we laid the groundwork for the future!
Our Report Card:
Governor Jon Corzine - We are proud to have played a part in electing the man who has promised to be New Jersey's most progressive governor ever, and maybe even the nation's! From the Corzine Connection-DFA statewide house parties, to the individual efforts from so many of our members, we truly had something to celebrate election night with this DFA-List Win!
Linda Greenstein & Dan Benson for Assembly - In this swing district, Assemblywoman Greenstein won re-election, and both our endorsed candidates ran a fresh and exciting campaign that also went a long way toward securing the Governor's victory. Thanks Linda and Dan!
Jun Choi for Mayor of Edison Township - In a tight race, our candidate, Jun Choi, finished the job he started in the primary, and prevailed to become the next Mayor of Edison - Congrats Jun!
Thom Jackson & Janice Schindler for Assembly, and Dana Wefer for Freeholder - Morris County DFA deserves a huge thanks for helping propel this Republican District into play this year. In races much closer than "the experts" predicted, our candidates let it be known that there is a future for progressive candidates in every corner of New Jersey! Thank you Thom, Janice and Dana!
Byron Arnao for Glen Rock Council - In this Republican-dominated town, Byron came within 15 votes of a seat on the Council. Byron will be back, and next time he'll make it!
Jeff Marshall for Hunterdon Freeholder and Damian Fracasso for Warren Freeholder - Often overlooked in recaps is the hard work put in by our candidates and supporters in the "Reddest" parts of New Jersey. But every dollar and every minute the right wing spends defending seats in "Red" areas means less time for them in other areas. Hats off our candidates and supporters in the toughest areas of the state!
Good job New Jersey! Next stop, 2006!
