Off topic, I know, but who is the woman (dark aired, light blue clothes) picutred in the photo?
Fmr. Mayor or Rutherford Bernadette McPherson, ousted in historic fashion as a symbol of the rejection of property taxes, overdevelopment, dual-office holding and corruption that has plagued NJ
LOL, dual-office holding isn't frowned on by anyone in NJ except you. Rutherford should have been happy to have a mayor who had extra power at the county level. She was not particularly corrupt, either, certainly not more than those who replaced her, and the Republicans are even more in favor of development than the Democrats in most of Bergen County (which is why anti-development groups tend to be movements within the Democratic primaries or independents).
Dual office holding is frowned on by plenty of people in New Jersey. Just not enough, generally, to swing elections.
I certainly oppose dual office holding. (Though, as Conan is thrilled to point out, I don't live there anymore.)
