President Barack Obama on Wednesday urged New Jersey to keep Democrat Jon Corzine as governor, calling him an honorable man who puts the people’s interests first.
“That’s the kind of governor that Jon Corzine has been. That’s the kind of governor that Jon Corzine will continue to be. That’s why New Jersey needs to give Jon Corzine another four years,” Obama told a cheering crowd of more than 3,000 in a gymnasium at Fairleigh Dickinson University.
Making his second political trip of the week in support of a Democrat on the Nov. 3 ballot, Obama touted Corzine’s record. The governor, he said, has provided more property tax relief to homeowners than any New Jersey governor and was the first chief executive in 60 years to make government smaller.
