Actually, the Dem stongholds are Hudson, Essex, Middlesex, Passaic, Mercer, Camden, Gloucester, and Cumberland Counties. These counties alone hold the lion’s share of the population. Republican counties are Morris, Somerset (barely, went for Obama in 08), Sussex, Warren, Hunterdon, Ocean, and Cape May. Bergen County (largest in the state) leans Democrat, but has Republican strongholds north of Paramus. The “wild card” counties are Salem, Atlantic, and Burlington counties, although the latter went for Obama by 18% thanks largely to the morons who have moved out of Philly over the past two decades.
Well Clemenza you just hammered out the big picture, I merely sketched a few strokes. At least there is some hope for NJ ahead.
Corzine sucks so bad that many people have had enough of him and his girl Carla. And all their baggage.
