  • Christie, Buono Clash in Fiery Final Debate Before Gubernatorial Election
    October 16, 2013 Christie, Buono clash in fiery final debate before gubernatorial election Squaring off in a spirited debate Tuesday night, Republican Gov. Chris Christie and Democratic challenger Barbara Buono took aim at each other on all the issues that showcase their many differences, including gun control, gay marriage and global warming. But the heat really turned up during their televised debate at Montclair State University when the two clashed over Republican Christie’s many deals with the Democrats. Christie defended the alliances he made with Democrats. Buono called him the master of backroom deals made with "party bosses." Buono referred to Essex County Executive Joe DiVincenzo, a Democrat who endorsed Christie and is accused of misusing campaign funds, but never used his name. "You’re not interested in cleaning up that boardwalk empire of back room political bosses," Buono said. "Joe DiVincenzo is sitting in the front row and I’m proud to have his endorsement and you wish you did," Christie said. "You want to start throwing stones tonight you better get out of your glass house." The spat set a combative tone for their second and final debate, held a Montclair State University. They went on to stake opposite positions on gay marriage, climate change and how best to run the government. When asked to defend his endorsement of U.S. Senate candidate Steve Lonegan, who supports the federal government shutdown, Christie invoked the state shutdown of several years ago. "It very much is reminiscent of what happened in Trenton under Senator Buono and Governor Corzine when they shut down the government because they couldn’t decide how much to raise taxes," Christie said.

  • Polls, Media, and Polarization Have Made New Jersey's Special Senate
    blogs.lse.ac.uk http://blogs.lse.ac.uk/usappblog/2013/10/15/new-jersey-special-senate-election/ Polls, media, and polarization have made New Jersey’s Special Senate Election between Cory Booker and Steve Lonegan a must-watch This week, New Jersey goes to the polls in a Senate vacancy election. While the Democratic candidate, Cory Booker is ahead, his path to what has been seen as a likely victory has been far from smooth, write Ashley Koning and David Redlawsk. They argue that because of an over- emphasis on individual polls driven by the media, the newly focused critical lens on Booker, the divergent strategies of the candidates, and the national implications of their ideological divide, this non-event has been thrust into centre stage in an otherwise predictable election season. This election was not supposed to happen – at least not on this day or this year. Newark Mayor Cory Booker (D) – a rising political star known for constant tweeting, heroic acts, and national headline-making – was on a different path five months ago. Having decided not to challenge Republican Governor Chris Christie for the governorship, Booker was instead planning a much- criticized bid to unseat fellow Democrat Senator Frank Lautenberg (D-NJ) in 2014. As for former Bogota, New Jersey Mayor Steve Lonegan (R) – a strong conservative in a “blue” state – he had been largely absent in recent state politics and was certainly not viewed as a viable 2014 candidate. Five months later, however, the two are front and center of a special statewide race with national implications and many eyes across the country watching – and a narrowing lead for Booker that has made this race more of a contest than anyone has expected.

In developing our list, we eliminated anyone who currently holds elected office, as well as the Judiciary. This precludes some people, Assemblyman/Democratic State Chairman Joe Cryan, for example. We also eliminated the living former Governors, United States Senators, and, of course, Bill Gormley: we believe this particular group remains highly influential and well-respected. This is an Insiders List. We looked at policy makers, party leaders, fundraisers, lobbyists, labor unions, businesses, and associations and have assembled the ultimate list of New Jerseyans with clout, with an impact on politics and government in the Garden State. We selected names based on a fairly unscientific curve: we allocated spaces on this list for a dozen different categories within the New Jersey political community -- so #11 on the list of important fundraisers or donors doesn’t make the list, but the most influential congressional staffer does.

  • Governor Corzine's Challengers Call for Lowering Tax
    FISCAL May 2009 No. 172 FACT New Jersey’s Gubernatorial Race, Part II: Governor Corzine’s Challengers Call for Lowering Tax Burdens By Joseph Henchman (See Fiscal Fact No. 171 for a discussion of Gov. Corzine's proposals and New Jersey's current economic crisis.) Lonegan and Christie Debate Income Tax Cuts The two major candidates for New Jersey's Republican gubernatorial nomination are former U.S. Attorney Chris Christie and former Bogota, New Jersey, Mayor Steve Lonegan. Polls show a close race between the two, and between each challenger and current governor Jon Corzine (D). Both Christie and Lonegan have made taxes a centerpiece of their platforms. Lonegan's more defined tax proposal centers on a flat income tax rate with no exemptions or deductions at a rate of 2.9% beginning with the first dollar, falling to 2.5% in the second year, and 2.1% in the third year. Lonegan argues that the economic growth induced by the sharp cut in income tax and elimination of distortive tax preferences will enable revenues to remain stable after the first year even as the rate drops. A flat income tax of the type Lonegan proposes is ambitious but attainable. Nine states have flat income taxes: Colorado, Illinois, Indiana, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, and Utah. However, all of these states either incorporate some federal deductions by having state taxpayers use adjusted gross income or taxable income from the federal form, or provide a standard deduction or personal exemption. Both would have the effect of shielding some low-income individuals from paying income tax, providing all taxpayers with a minimal tax reduction, and making the system mildly progressive.
