\”SMOKING GUN\” LAW FOUND PROVING GOV. CHRISTIE’S OCTOBER SPECIAL ELECTION IS ILLEGAL

(TRENTON, NJ) – Today, New Jersey Citizen Action and New Jersey Communities United filed a brief

$\"Imgres\"$ showcasing a state law on filling U.S. Senate vacancies that says such elections should be spaced out in a way that saves taxpayer money. The law’s purpose was to \”avoid the expenses of special elections for United States Senators and Congressmen.\”

\”We already knew Governor Christie\’s call for a special election in October was politically self-serving, but now we know it is clearly illegal,\” said Phyllis Salowe-Kaye, Executive Director of New Jersey Citizen Action. \”As a former U.S. Attorney, Christie should be guided by the law and as Governor he should be guided by what’s best for the state. This ‘smoking gun’ legislation makes it clear that the legislative intent was to save taxpayer dollars – the exact opposite of Governor Christie’s undemocratic decision, which is unnecessarily costing taxpayers an estimated $12 million.\”

For Immediate Release/June 19, 2013

Trenton, NJ – Governor Chris Christie released the following statement tonight on the tragic passing of New Jersey native James Gandolfini:

\”It’s an awful shock. James Gandolfini was a fine actor, a Rutgers alum and a true Jersey guy. I was a huge fan of his and the character he played so authentically, Tony Soprano.

First of all, along with The Scottsboro Boys, Rogue Machine’s world premiere of One Night in Miami… is $\"Unknown\"$ simply among the best plays I’ve seen in years. Ironically, both productions are based on real events involving world historical African Americans. Indeed, regarding the current wave of Black-themed plays, a member of the Miami crew quipped at an opening night after party, \”it’s not even February!\” (This wisecrack, of course, refers to Black History Month, when African American works are often highlighted — or ghettoized, depending on your P.O.V.)
