Gov. Chris Christie is touting its get-out-the-vote effort before Tuesday’s legislative elections
A New Jersey state GOP swollen with political cash and the support of popular Gov. Chris Christie is touting its get-out-the-vote effort before Tuesday’s legislative elections in a memo sent to top Republican leaders Sunday.
The memo, obtained by The Wall Street Journal, acts as a rallying cry for Republicans trying to wrest seats from the Democratic-controlled legislature in a handful of competitive Assembly and Senate races.
“For years Republican candidates have lacked adequate financial resources but that is not the case in 2011,” said the memo sent to about 60 county chairs, state committee members and other top GOP leaders. (Haddon, The Wall Street Journal)
