Little Leads by 105 in CD-6

After being outspent by at least 10-1, Anna Little leads Diane Gooch for the GOP nomination for congress in CD-6 by 105 votes.

Monmouth County put Little over the top. She defeated Gooch by 761 votes in Monmouth. Gooch won Middlesex by 608 and Union by 48. The candidates were tied 89-89 in Somerset.

There is likely to be a recount, which will keep Brian Nelson representing Gooch and Michael Laffey representing Little busy for a few days. But barring a completely unpredictable error in the machine counts, Little will be the nominee. Provisional ballots are likely to break for Little.

Congratulations to Anna Little and her entire team!!!!! Anna's win also gives us all hope in the democratic process, YOU CAN NOT BUY US!!!!!
Her win in Monmouth County speaks loudly to the fact that the small hand picked steering committee that decides who to give the line to is out of touch with the voters and it is time for a change. Anna Little has put together a grassroots effort that Joe Oxley, his Monmouth County machine and Diane Gooch's millions could not defeat.Anna, you go girl!!!!!!!!!

Now is it more like 65 votes separating the two.

anon 6:53 -- be happy now and move on...stop with the negative about being bought and the GOP machine--channel your energy toward a win in Nov. Something tells me you'll still be whining about something.
