NJ Democrats: Florida Re-dux?Let me see if I understand this. Once again Democrats are going to court to try and overturn election rules they don't like? In this case Senator Robert Torricelli is abandoning his campaign with 35 days to go, well short of the 51 needed by law unless the candidate dies. Democrats argue that they should not be bound by the deadline. County clerks have "ample opportunity" to replace Torricelli's name, and if his name is not withdrawn, voters will be confused, they contend. Gov. James E. McGreevey said Tuesday that placing a new candidate on the ballot would be a fair way to resolve the issue. "This would give New Jersey voters a chance to speak," McGreevey said. Funny, voters are allowed to 'speak' as long as they are saying something you want to hear. A weak Democrat challenger in a Democrat-run state with a narrow majority in the Senate means voters can 'speak' ... yet Bush 'stole' the election because voters spoke in Florida. No one ever mentions that Gore would have won the election if Bush had not 'stolen' Gore's home state of Tennessee. Article Here |
