D. Anne Wolfe is running for The US House of Representatives in the 5th Congressional District in New Jersey. Her opponent is one-term frothing repuke Scott Garrett. Google the name and bone up on him. I assure you, I could not do the man justice here.
We, in the 5th, desperately need
REAL representation in Washington. For the last two years, Garrett has been an oft-rumored, little-seen wraith. He has shown no real interest in the issues and needs that we face in the 5th. He is a Club for Growth-installed idealogue, who runs on the shop-worn "God, Guts and Guns" theme. His first vote in congress was against extension of unemployment benefits. He represents a district where, in the western part, unemployment runs at approximately twice that of the state average.
I know Anne personally. I have known her since the first time she came out here to announce her candidacy. She is a fine woman, a strong Democrat, whip smart and would represent
ALL if her district in Washington. My admiration for her, and her husband John, knows no bounds.
She need help in funding this campaign. Due to certain exigencies in NJ politics, monies available to her campaign from various official sources have been thin. So, I have taken it upon myself to as the good DU members to please help her out. $5, 10, 20, whatever. Anything will help. Garrett is getting his funds from Club for Growth and gun owner groups, as well as the RNC.
Please help us in the 5th get real representation for everyone, not just the few. Please send something to Anne.
