Newark Mayor Cory Booker has a seemingly unbeatable lead in next week's Democratic Senate primary in New Jersey, with 54 percent of likely Democratic primary voters, according to a Quinnipiac University poll released today.
U.S. Rep. Frank Pallone has 17 percent of likely voters, with 15 percent for U.S. Rep. Rush Holt and 5 percent for State Assembly Speaker Sheila Oliver. Only 8 percent of voters remain undecided. This is the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pe-ack) University's first measure of likely primary voters in this cycle and can not be compared to earlier surveys of registered voters.

Will vote by mail for Booker in October. I've got to save my energy for Buono's campaign in November. When the Senate race should also be held - but Christie wants us to pay for two elections - so since he's king shit - he gets his way.
However - Booker better come out loud and large for Barbara Buono and do it in his victory speech. He better get behind her - because he has to run again in very short order . . .
