Meanwhile, closer to home, I was quite happy to very literally run into Linda Stender this morning, as she and a few supporters were out meeting the public at the local train station today. She was very pleasant and quite engaging, even though it wasn't even 7am yet. With just a little research at PoliticsNJ.com,
I was able to find that "Rep. Mike Fergsuon has raised $2,405,369 and has $925,870 cash-on-hand, while challenger Linda Stender has raised $1,368,083 and has $295,671 remaining in her warchest. But in the last quarter, Stender raised more money than Ferguson: $468,343 to $393,723." I was a little taken aback by this, since the disparity is so great. I'm given to understand that the race is dead even otherwise, so if anyone out there can spare it, please
please go and make a contribution as I'm sure she will need it.
