With the race for New Jersey's governor coming to a head on Tuesday, the candidates are getting downright chipper. And Corzine definitely appears to be getting rattled. At last night's debate, both candidates had to address the issues raised in the latest commercials and claims over marital infidelity and the use of Joanne Corzine's New York Times comments.
Forrester defended the use of Joanne's comments because they were substantive and directly related to Corzine's fitness to be governor. Corzine decried the use of Joanne's comments because they were airing dirty laundry and personal relationships. Both men are correct, but Forrester's response is more convincing. Joanne wasn't just Corzine's wife, but a key person in Corzine's campaign for the Senate.
Corzine muffed up a question on the drinking age in New Jersey, and it could portray Corzine as out of touch with the reality.
Meanwhile, Enlighten NJ notes that the state has failed in its obligation to remove the dead from the voter rolls. This has a significant impact on absentee ballots which are a major concern for voter fraud.
UPDATE:
Michelle Malkin also notes the court ruling that found officials did not remove the dead from the voter rolls. She also notes that recent polling suggests that Corzine was pulling ahead, but I think right now that the polling is all over the place and you can't take any of them seriously. Corzine is probably ahead, but likely within the error of margin.
