Corzine to join Biden in Philadelphia tomorrow

by: Jason Springer

Mon Jul 27, 2009 at 08:29:10 PM EDT



Governor Corzine will join Vice President Biden and Attorney General Holder in Philadelphia, PA for what is being touted as "a major American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) funding announcement for law enforcement agencies across the nation." They will be joined by  Pennsylvania Governor Ed Rendell, Delaware Governor Jack Markell, Maryland Governor Martin O'Malley, Philadelphia Mayor Michael Nutter and City of Philadelphia Police Commissioner Charles H. Ramsey.

However, a story in the Star Ledger say the event was supposed to occur in NJ originally:

Biden and Holder were originally scheduled to hold the event, on community policing grants, in Pennsauken, Camden County, but the location was switched to Philadelphia.
The Ledger implies the event was switched as a result of the corruption busts last week. However Biden's office said no final decision was made:
"We scouted several locations and Philadelphia was the most convenient and central location for all the principals," Biden spokeswoman Elizabeth Alexander said.
It may be the most convenient, but I had also heard that the event was going to be held in South Jersey separately before reading of the current venue. For whatever reason, the event will be held in Philadelphia tomorrow at 10:15am.
