I made my get-out-the-vote call to Campaign Spot brother, who’s unenthusiastic about Christie but loathes Corzine.
Over on the homepage, I have a piece on what this election means to New Jersey, and how the state has changed in the decade and a half since I left — in short, “it’s as if an H-bomb of gloom detonated some years back and the fallout continued to plague the residents.”
Also read Duncan Currie’s piece from yesterday, detailing how the state’s Byzantine local government structures and special commissions have created a kingdom of filthy, parasitic patronage.
By the way, when I title this post, “New Jersey’s Do-or-Die” moment, it’s more appropriate than I thought, with reports that Democrats are using gang members for get-out-the-vote efforts.
