Buono to Kick Off Gubernatorial Campaign in New Brunswick

Sen. Barbara Buono will hold a rally at New Brunswick High School on Saturday.

Sen. Barbara Buono has picked New Brunswick High School as the site to begin her campaign for state governor.

At noon on Saturday, Feb. 2, Buono (D-Middlesex) will host "Rally for New Jersey's Future" at New Brunswick High School, 1000 Somerset St.

Buono, a resident of Metuchen, has been a senator since 2002. 

In the last few years, she has locally campaigned for domestic violence victims, introduced legislation to transform foreclosed homes into affordable housing, and to approve charter schools through local voting, and voted in favor of a bill that would legalize same-sex marriage in New Jersey.

She is believed to be the Democratic candidate to face Gov. Chris Christie in this year's gubernatorial election after being endorsed by several Democratic organizations statewide, according to an article on Huffington Post.

Why do you think (i) this woman would waste her time and (ii) people would donate funds to her for a campaign?
Does NJ provide matching funds similar to the fed gov for campaigns? That would be such a HUGE waste of money.

First question I would ask her is why she supported those two losers: Corzine and McGreevey for Governor during the last 10 years. In other words is she capable of making an intelligent decision not governed by party line politics?

Did Buono ever return the nearly $14,000 in campaign contributions she directly received from her her Party Boss and disgraced Middlesex County Democratic Chairman, Joe Spicuzzo.....
Just sayin....
