Truck driver runs over political opponent in a $153 campaign!

[T. A. Gardner]

Seems that going on under the radar is the defeat of a Democrat, the President of the New Jersey Senate being taken down by a truck driver opponent who spent all of $153 on his campaign! Now that's a beatdown if there ever was one. Right now less than 2000 votes separates the two campaigns (with the truck driver ahead) so a recount is likely. But either way, for a politically powerful, career politician, to be in a race that tight with a guy that ran on nothing other than not being his opponent says the Democrats are really getting fucked.

Amazing what a CDL and high school diploma can do for you hum? You know how he won? He went door-to-door and talked to people. He spent most of that $153 on Dunkin donuts...

I heard about that. Is the Incumbent so tiresome or is the Opponent filled with new ideas?

The incumbent is known as a political "king maker" and apparently thought his shit didn't stink...

Yes he did. The lack of double-speak probably helped too.

Not to mention most people don't like snakes...
