I can't believe that all 3 debates - 2 Gubernatorial & 1 LG - are being held in north Jersey! And both Newark & Montclair are in Democrat-dense Essex County. Sheila Oliver grew up in Newark & has been an elected official of Essex County. How biased can this possibly be?! Wonder how tix to these debates will be distributed .. by Democratic party bosses?
