Let's win this primary so we can take this agenda to the fall election, beat the Republicans and get an agenda that works for America. Jon Corzine didn't attract the same free TV time the New York media showered on Hillary Clinton, Rudolph Giuliani and Rick Lazio. After all, Corzine was running for the U.S. Senate on the other side of the Hudson River, in New Jersey. But most people in northern New Jersey watch and get their news from New York City's commercial television station, just as people in Southern New Jersey watch Philadelphia television. NJN News with Ted Manahan.
Today is primary election day in New Jersey.
New Jersey's only statewide newscast is on public television and attracts only a fraction of the viewers the commercial stations do. So Jon Corzine, a political newcomer with no statewide name recognition just a few months ago, bought television time and lots of it. We can build a better future. We just need the courage to pursue bold ideas. I hope you'll give me the chance to do that as your United States Senator.
