Facing state employee contracts entered into by the prior administration that include raises of between 7 percent and 11 percent for thousands of public employees in 2011, Governor Christie said he must do all that is necessary to blunt those poorly conceived and ill-timed contractual obligations that will now heavily burden budgets for Fiscal 2011 and Fiscal 2012. “We are stuck with this problem, but that does not mean I am barred from finding a way to fix it,” said Governor Christie. “I don’t think you will find private sector employees anywhere enjoying the luxury of an 11 percent raise next year. It was a promise that the state cannot afford and should never have been made in the first place.” The task force was created to examine areas where government services and functions can be provided by the private sector.

  • New Jersey Voters' Take on 2008

On the presidential side, Barack Obama’s message of change seems to have caused a change of heart among many Democratic voters who supported Hillary Clinton in the state’s February 5 th primary. And while a call for change also resonates in the U.S. Senate race, it does not seem to be enough in itself to incite voters to oust incumbent Frank Lautenberg. These are among the findings in the latest Monmouth University/Gannett New Jersey Poll . The Senate Race Despite New Jersey voters’ stated preference for a change of face, all signs point to Frank Lautenberg being in a strong position for re-election in both the primary and general elections. Overall, 48% of registered voters in the Garden State approve of the job Frank Lautenberg is doing in the United States Senate, another 31% disapprove and 21% have no opinion. Democrats approve of his job performance by a 59% to 19% margin, and independents give him an advantage at 49% approve to 32% disapprove. Republicans are largely negative – 24% approve to 54% disapprove.
