Emergency ELEC Hearing On Thursday

The New Jersey Election Law Enforcement Commission announced today that they are convening a special telephonic meeting on Thrusday March 5 at 10:30 am.

According to the statement, "This special meeting is being held
pursuant to N.J.S.A. 10:4-9 and is necessary to deal with an urgent matter of importance and of concern to the public interest about the 2009 gubernatorial election. A delay for the purpose of providing adequate notice might result in harm to the public interest."

Frederick M. Herrman, Ph.D., Executive Director of the Commission declined to be more specific about the topic of the meeting, other than to state that it is an investigative matter.

GOP gubernatorial candidate Steve Lonegan has acknowledged that his applications for matching funds are subject to an ELEC investigation due to his previous employment with an issue advocacy group. This matter may be totally unrelated to the Lonegan investigation, but you can bet all eyes and ears from the Christie and Lonegan camps will be tuned in to Trenton on Thursday morning.

uh-oh, me senses a hatchet-job on Steve by the wimpy "establishments"..he speaks with the conviction and core beliefs the RINO's don't/won't ever be able to understand or muster..so,as with the media and Libs, when you're bereft of ideas and real solutions, beat down your opponent any stinking way you can.. hope they fail and Steve prevails, we desperately need a very different tone and direction,now!..and, go, Kim- looking forward to getting to know ya.. ps: the crowd at the Casino was awesome!..wish there wasn't so much time for the tearing-down over these next weeks!
