This weekend, Newark Mayor Ras J. Baraka will embark on a bus tour across South Jersey, making numerous stops to meet directly with voters and community leaders. The tour comes after a coalition of major progressive groups endorsed Mayor Baraka on Thursday in his efforts to become the next governor of New Jersey.

On Saturday, Mayor Baraka will begin the day by opening a new campaign field office in Mount Holly before holding a voter meet and greet with Moorestown Mayor Quinton Law. Later, he will meet with fellow members of the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity before stopping at a local barbershop in Willingboro.

On Sunday, Mayor Baraka will participate in Sunday services at Tabernacle Baptist Church in Burlington followed by brunch at Taste of Soul, a family-owned restaurant.
