    For Immediate Release, Tuesday, October 21 9 pages Contact: Krista Jenkins 973.443.8390 or [email protected] BLAST FROM THE PAST: LEAD FOR BOOKER COMPARABLE TO BELL’S LAST OPPONENT IN 1978 November’s Senate election pits the incumbent, Democrat Cory Booker, against an underdog, Republican Jeff Bell. While most are focused on the horserace numbers between the two, Fairleigh Dickinson University’s PublicMind expands the focus by asking likely voters not just about the current contest involving Bell, but also their preferences in a hypothetical rematch between Bell and his 1978 opponent, Democrat Bill Bradley. Beginning with how Bell fares against his current opponent, the poll finds that Booker’s lead remains formidable at 56 to 40 percent, with Booker outpacing Bell’s favorables by an almost two-to-one margin (57% versus 29%, respectively). Despite Bell’s history in New Jersey politics, voters remain unsure of their opinion of him (49%). “Since the interviews were done more than two weeks out from the election, numbers are certainly likely to change. But a lead of this magnitude is good news for the incumbent Senator,” said Krista Jenkins, director of the poll and professor of political science. “It’s not a political environment that’s particularly warm for incumbents, but it looks like Booker has little to be worried about as the campaign season draws to a close.” The same poll finds that Bell polls worse now than 35 years ago when he first ran for a New Jersey U.S. Senate seat and lost. In a hypothetical rematch between Bell and then-competitor Bradley today, PublicMind pegs him at 36 percent whereas in 1978 he wound up with 43 percent of the vote.

Reagar must share part of the blame, owing to his procrastination and indecisive­ ness during 1974 and much of 1975.

HECTOR P. GARCIA: A STUDY IN CROSS-CULTURAL COMMUNICATION LEADERSHIP A Thesis by ROSANA VANESSA GOMEZ PACHON This thesis meets the standards for scope and quality of Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi and is hereby approved. Anantha Babbili, PhD Michelle M. Maresh-Fuehrer, PhD Chair Co-Chair May 2020 ABSTRACT The purpose of this study is to investigate the communication leadership styles of Dr. Hector P. Garcia, a Mexican American leader in the United States. Dr. Garcia is best known for founding the American G.I. Forum social movement with a mission to protect and defend veterans’ and Hispanic Americans’ civil rights by providing access to education, health, and employment. Trait, skills, and emotional intelligence leadership styles are applied using a critical rhetorical approach. Dr. Garcia’s leadership style is a reference to analyze, understand, and apply the different concepts, theories, and approaches concerning effective leadership. The results of this study demonstrate that Dr. Hector P. Garcia was a transformational and servant leader who used charismatic and authentic communication to build a relationship with followers. These findings illustrate how Dr. Garcia used different tools of persuasion such as ethos, logos, pathos, and civic spaces to deliver and engage in communication with his followers.

Box 32159 Newark, New Jersey 07102 Re: Newark Monitorship Proposal and Response Dear : On behalf of my monitoring team, I submit this response to the Newark Communities for Accountable Policing (N-CAP). We welcome this opportunity to share with N-CAP, and the broader Newark community, the proposal we submitted to the Department of Justice on February 13, 2015. Accordingly, enclosed, please find six copies of our proposal. The copies are unredacted since we, like N-CAP, believe that complete transparency in the selection process is essential from the very first. We also address N-CAP's specific questions. Although we answer each question individually, the questions seem (rightly) focused on two concerns: (1) how will our monitoring team engage with N-CAP, other stakeholders, andthe Newark community to be certain that residents understand the Consent Decree, the role of the Monitor, and have an effective voice in reshaping the Newark Police Department?; and (2) how will our monitoring team ensure that the reforms embodied in the Consent Decree outlive the Decree and the Monitor and firmly take root within the Police Department? The answer to the second is largely, if not wholly, dependent on the first. Newark is faced with a historic opportunity- to create a police department that prizes transparency, accountability, and engagement with the community, not just for five years, but forever.
