New Jersey Governor's Race -- Meet the Candidates
The Jersey GOP Blog had a piece a few days back asking if six Republicans could beat one Democrat. Reading that, I realized I didn't really know enough about each candidate.
Here's the first in a series of pieces I'm putting together about our Republican candidates for governor. In this table, just some basic facts about each announced candidate, as gleaned from their campaign web sites. Hope you find this helpful!
