In NJ7, Linda Stender has raised nearly 1.5 million, she is now within the margin of error, and has been trending up since the spring. Linda's going to win. The question is will there be a 2nd DEM to defeat a incumbent NEO CON in NJ.
NJ has 2 DFA endorsed candidates who are challenging Incumbent Republicans. Not just Republicans, these are NEO CONS, they have voted with Bush and the Republican leadership in the House 80%+.
Let me introduce you to Carol Gay in NJ4, and Tom Wyka in NJ11.
Carol Gay came to New Jersey in 1972 as a social worker for the Camden County Board of Social Services. On her first day on the job, she joined her union, the Communications Workers of America, and has been a union leader ever since. From 1980 until her retirement in 2003, she served CWA as an organizer and International Representative, and was the first NJ Welfare Council member elected to serve on the CWA Public Workers National Bargaining Council.
I 1st met Carol at DFA's statewide meeting in early April '06, I was immediately impressed.
Carol Gay.
Please go to her website and give as generously as you can.
http://www.carolgayforcongress.com/Next up is Tom Wyka, I also 1st met Tom at the Statewide DFA meeting in April. Tom was at Camp Wellstone taking the 3 day campaign seminar when he decided "this needs doing". Right there, Tom announced to his classmates he was going to run for Congress. I have volunteered about 160 hours for Tom. I have organized canvasses, a catered fundraiser & made 3 videos, now posted on Tom's site. Tom is a solid DEM, DFA & PDA. Our recent internal polls show Tom might do better than 42%, in 2004 the DEM got 31%, so Tom has made up significant ground.
Here is Tom & Senator Menendez at a recent campaign event.
