John Wisniewski

U.S. Rep. Rob Andrews, Assemblyman John Wisniewski, and John Rutkowski
PERTH AMBOY - A city of wrought iron fire escapes hugs the waterfront to east of the highways, where in a banquet hall behind the ZPA Cocktail Lounge on Saturday night, U.S. Rep. Rob Andrews goes from table to table with Assemblyman John Wisniewski (D-Middlesex).

The 100 people here representing the United Poles in America ZPA embrace Wisniewski as one of their own, the powerful chairman of the Assembly Transportation Committee, who grew up among them in Sayreville, and who’s represented them for over 12 years.

Tonight on NJN, Reporters Roundtable will feature Nick Acocella from Politifax; Michael Symons of Gannett; David Chen from the New York Times and the Bergen Record’s John Reitmeyer. The reporters will discuss the Governor’s toll plan and the indictment of former state Sen. Joe Congilio. The show, hosted by Michael Aron, will air tonight at 6:30 and Sunday at 10a.m.

Gov. Jon Corzine likes the idea of Bob Menendez running for Vice President
Gov. Jon Corzine said that he’s not involved with Hillary Clinton’s potential choices for Vice President. But he thinks Bob Menendez would be a good one.

“First of all, it would be a great choice, but I have no idea. I’m not involved in that,” said Corzine before boarding a train that whisked him down to Washington, DC for the Chamber of Commerce’s Walk on Washington. “Clearly Bob has played a meaningful role in the national campaign because of his leadership of Hispanics for Mrs. Clinton, and he’s an able spokesperson on any of the issues he speaks out about.”

Republican Assembly candidate Paul “Daniels” Danielczyk today lashed out against his opponent, Joseph Vas, for abstaining from voting on the Dual Office Holding bill.

"By abstaining on the vote, Vas has admitted that a conflict of interest does exist with holding two offices,” said Danielczyk in a press release.
