Democratic New Jersey state Senate President Steve Sweeney said 'the closeness of several State Senate elections' meant that a leadership caucus meeting needed to be delayed.
President Steve Sweeney postponed a Senate leadership caucus session planned for Thursday while virtually unknown Republican truck driver Edward Durr appeared poised to defeat him.
"Due to the closeness of several State Senate elections, the leadership caucus scheduled for tomorrow will be delayed," Sweeney said, according to the New Jersey Globe."The caucus will be rescheduled once the result of every Senate election is determined." The $153 that Durr spent to secure the GOP nomination reportedly included about $66 spent at drinks and donuts at Dunkin. Durr estimated to Politico that less than $10,000 was spent on his candidacy overall, a small amount for a high-profile statewide office.
