Clean Elections campaign

Dear Governor Corzine: You are one of my heroes, having supported public financing of political campaigns. I am very surprised and disappointed to learn that you have not included continued funding for this in the state budget. I understand how difficult it has become for states to deal with serious deficits, but to cut a very successful program that is ensuring cleaner and honest elections of candidates beholden only to their constituents is most unwise. This is a foundation for good government, and I implore you to restore funding for it. Sincerely yours, Stanley Boyd sbb223@yahoo.com

Governor, You know the value of public financed elections. Why haven't you included funding for them? Was it an oversight? Please back any and all legislation that includes public financing dollars in the budget. Thank you.

The Asbury Park Press issues a stern warning to New Jersey Governor Jon Corzine and the state legislature to restore funding for the state's Clean Elections pilot program and expand eligibility to include primary races, where newcomers have the best chance to mount competitive bids.
