Biden in Bergen with Corzine & Lautenberg tomorrow

by: Jason Springer

Wed May 06, 2009 at 05:41:43 PM EDT



Vice President Biden will be in Lodi tomorrow with Governor Corzine and Senator Lautenberg.  He will be there to discuss the federal stimulus package and make the public aware of how the money is being spent.
"There are literally hundreds of these visits brought on by the stimulus program," Corzine said. "This is about jobs. It's about building schools, environmental projects. People should expect there to be many many more."
But the Governor didn't want to hear anything about the visit being political:
Corzine shrugged off the suggestion that the vice president's visit may benefit him in his bid for re-election, saying that Biden was just in Minnesota to examine how the stimulus money is being spent there.

"I can't emphasize enough. This is about pushing for economic recovery," the governor said.

He may not want to talk about the politics, but it can't hurt to have the Vice President in a popular administration talking about spending projects in a county that is vital to the Governor remaining in that position come the fall. Corzine also said that Biden will help him inaugurate a road project. If you're near Lodi and attend the event, feel free to post photos and a story here on the blog.
