4/10/06 News Roundup

  • 4:00 pm today is the deadline for filing petitions for County Committee. The County Committees are the backbone for the parties when it comes to Get Out The Vote organizing, nominating candidates to run on the county’s party line, and helping decide party platforms.

  • Jose Delgado, a Democrat running for Camden County sheriff, is starting a revolution by only accepting one dollar from each of the donors to his campaign.

  • State senators begin dissecting the budget today. State law requires a balanced budget by July 1st.

  • NJ’s smokers get hit again with online cigarette merchants releasing their names to the State Division of Taxation. This is in an attempt to collect on the $2.40 a pack cigarette tax New Jersey has, and maybe generate a bit more revenue for the state.

    taxes on smokes..... (0.00 / 0)
    ....should be high.
    so should tax on gas.
    I am eager for the pols to start doing a better job with the money from the treasury so folks could have more confidence in what's being done w. our tax dollers.
    And thanks again to Miss Mariel who seems to be carrying a lot of "news roundup" water.

    thanks jay (0.00 / 0)
    ...and we should raise the gas tax because people NEED gas for their cars so its an easy way to raise some money especially in the summer when everyone & their neighbor is driving.
