Irhuluneli uChris Christie
Ilifa? Uva abalingane bakhe abanoburharha bethetha njengabalinganiswa kwingoma yeBruce Springsteen malunga neentsuku zozuko zekota yokuqala. Ngoku, ingozi kuChristie kukuba iincwadi zembali (okanye ubuncinci iphepha lakhe leWikipedia kunye noMat Katz's sequel kwiRhuluneli yaseMelika) ziya kubhala ukuba i-guv ilandele njani ukugwetyelwa ubongameli ngelixa iAtlantic City yawela elwandle. Imke kurhulumente iinyanga inezikhanyiso kuphela ekhaya ngamanye amaxesha, irhuluneli yaseRiphabhlikhi izamile ukuziqinisa kwingxaki yokuthatha i-AC ngokudlala eyona ndima isebenzayo: ukubiza igama lokuxhaphaza. UChristie wakhetha ngokukhawuleza oko wayecinga ukuba kuya kuba ziinjongo ezimbini ezilula kakhulu: USodolophu weSixeko saseAtlantic uDon Guardian kunye noSomlomo uVincent Prieto (D-32). Abafana abahle? Yintoni le yayithethwa nguSteve Adubato, uSr malunga nabafana abahle? Abanaxabiso kakhulu kwezopolitiko, ngaphandle kokuba bafumaneke xa umntu efuna ukugawulwa. U-Guardian wayengumfana owayenxibe iqhina lokukhwela kwaye ehamba ngebhayisikile ejikeleze idolophu ephumelele usodolophu xa uLorenzo Langford eyokulala ngexesha lokuphinda akhethe kwakhona ngo-2013. Kwaye Prieto? U-Prieto wayengumsebenzi wecandelo likarhulumente kwi-Secaucus kunye ne-back bench ye-Assemblyman owayephambene ethe nca kwisitulo sesithethi ngu-Senator kaRhulumente uNick Sacco (D-32). Ukugqibelela. UChristie uqikelele ukuba angabathatha bobabini aba bantu ngesandla esinye, kwaye neqela elithile lethegi elithembekileyo lokuphosa umdlalo weqonga onikezwe ngu…
UMongameli weSenethi uSteve Sweeney
Ebalekela irhuluneli ephuma eSouth Jersey, uSweeney kwafuneka alumke angabanjwa ekuthatheni inxaxheba kwizikhundla zopolitiko njengoko esiya ku-2017, kwaye embindini weSixeko iAtlantic imbroglio wazifaka engozini ngoku kwindima yakhe encinci: UChristie ally. Kwakufuneka icaphukise kakhulu uSweeney. Emva kokuhlala noChristie kwicandelo likarhulumente kumhlala-phantsi kunye nezibonelelo eziye zarhoxisa uthethathethwano oluhlangeneyo, i-senate prez ichithe inani lokugqibela leminyaka kunye nomnqamlezo wabasebenzi becandelo likarhulumente bexhonywe emagxeni akhe, bezama ukubuyela kwinkululeko. Kwaye ngoku: UPreto unikezela ngolunye uhlobo lokungenelela kungenelelo lweSixeko saseAtlantic esinezinto ezinobunkunkqele kwicandelo likarhulumente ngokuchasene ngqo neSweeney. Inqaku lokwahlula liphumelele ekungenzi nto ngaphandle kokuhambisa i-Democratic Party ye-2017 ethembayo kwakhona kwindima kaChristie WWF. Into eyenze ukuba izinto zinganyamezeleki yile nto mna, andenzanga nto kubuSodolophu weSixeko saseJersey uSteven Fulop phezulu e-Hudson County ngokucacileyo ngasemva kuka-Prieto, ngokuzolileyo eqhuba igalufa yakhe ebeka oomatshini kwiofisi yeholo yesixeko eyayihlala uFrank Hague wabo bonke abantu, okanye nantoni na ayenzileyo phaya phezulu, ngelixa uTrenton ezika elunxwemeni lweDelaware. USweeney wayewupasile umrhumo wakhe wokuthatha i-AC kwindlu ephezulu enedrama encinci-impumelelo enokuthi iqinisekise ukuba inqaku le-bullet likwiphepha loncwadi: U-Sweeney uphumelele ukuhlangula iAtlantic City - ukuba isithethi besikwenzile oko bekufanele ukwenziwa, kudlalwe ibhola, kwaye kudlule kwicala lendibano. Ngoku umdlalo u-Sweeney wankqonkqoza impendulo yakhe kwingxaki ekhokelayo kunye nePort Authority njengendlela yokuzama ukuthothisa eli bali liyoyikekayo njengoko uChristie wayemana ebaleka esenza ibill exhaswa nguye-kunye ne-Sweeney yase-South Jersey.
Indibano enkulu uLou Greenwald
Kukho izangqa eSouth Jersey (uninzi lwazo luvela kwindawo yaseCherry Hill) apho iGreenwald- ekhangeleka njengomgqatswa oza kudlala uJames Bond (eRoger Moore, hayi isithethe sikaDaniel Craig wale ndawo) - ivela kwiingxoxo njenge South Jersey's Olona khetho lufanelekileyo lokuguqulela ngaphezulu kwesahlulo esiseMazantsi-seNtaba esinqumle ilizwe ngesiqingatha njengelori yetanki eguqulweyo embindini wonyaka we-195. IGreenwald epholisiweyo, hayi iSweeney engapoliswanga, impikiswano iyabaleka, kufuneka ibalekele irhuluneli ngo-2017. Iswelekile off, kunjalo, njengoko ukhuphiswano oluya ku-2017 luye lwaqina kwaye uSweeney ubonakalisile amandla okunyusa ingxowa-mali kunye nomanyano olomeleleyo lwe-caucus yelizwe liphela, kodwa ngamanye amaxesha ngoku umntu uva ukuhleba okukhathazayo eFulopworld malunga nokutshintsha ngomzuzu wokugqibela ukusuka eSweeney ukuya eGreenwald. Inxalenye yengxaki ngengxoxo-mpikiswano yeyokuba iGreenwald, ityala liyahamba, alithandeki kwaye liqhelekile ngendlela uSweeney anayo, kwaye ke, nokuba yeyiphi na indlela elungileyo yokuphatha izifundo kunye nokungakwazi ukukhubeka kwimakrofoni, ubandakanya Ukuchasana nesiseko sepolitiki yanamhlanje yaseMelika, eyile yokuba ezopolitiko kufuneka ajonge, enze kwaye athethe njengomfana odibana naye kwisitulo sebar esihamba nayo kwihonky tonk yalapha. Ke nantsi iGreenwald, amabhongo akhe abambe ilizwe lonke ngelixa uSweeney ebaleka (kwaye mhlawumbi engakhubazeki kwikamva elibonakalayo ukuba nje uluntu luthandabuza umgqatswa ophumeleleyo obonakala ekrelekrele ngaphezu komndilili), ngokufanelekileyo kwindima yejoni laseSouth Jersey, njenge uLieutenant kwifilimu yeWWII owazalelwa ukuba ngumongameli endaweni yoko kufuneka awe kwibhombu yesandla ukuze asindise iplatoon. Ukufika nje izolo, imithombo, ebibonakala ngathi ayinalwazi kangako, yahambisa umbono wokuba uMzantsi uzama ukudibanisa umanyano lwendibano yabantu ukuze balahle u-Prieto kwaye bamthabathele indawo ngoGreenwald kwisitulo sesithethi (okanye umntu oqhelekileyo, njengo-Assemblyman uWayne DeAngelo) kodwa iivoti (zakuba kanye!) khange zibonakale ngathi zibekhona kwimvukelo yase Mzantsi Jersey.
OTHILE
USomlomo uVincent Prieto
Ukuya emva xa uSomlomo u-Emeritus Sheila Oliver ethathe isihlalo sobukhosi, uvavanyo olupholileyo lwabantwana oluvela eofisini langaphambili nakwigumbi leNdlu yeeNgwevu kukuba ibandla liyakwenza oko likuxelelwayo xa uChristie efowunela u-Essex County Executive Joe DiVincenzo (kwi Ityala likaOliver) okanye (LOL) xa uGeorge Norcross III ecofa uScoco (Prieto). U-Lyndon Johnson wayedla ngokuthi umahluko phakathi kwe-senate kunye nendlu ye-reps yayingumahluko phakathi kwesaladi yenkukhu kunye nenkukhu s ** t, kwaye ukuba khange bawele kulo lonke u-Robert A. Caro's Master of the Senate, Christie and I-Sweeney ngokuqinisekileyo iyavuya kukukwazi kwabo ukukwazi ukutshintshela loo mgaqo-nkqubo kwiNew York Statehouse yezopolitiko. Banokubaleka ngaphezulu kukaVinny. Kwakunjengaleyo yayikuDkt.Strangelove xa uGeneral Frank N. Stein ezama ukukhusela wonke umkhosi wase-US phantsi kwemiyalelo ethe ngqo yiPentagon ukuba imhlambe ecaleni. ISouth Jersey kunye neofisi engaphambili zinokuhlasela ikampu ye-Prieto kwaye zithathe naliphi na ixesha abafuna ngalo. Kodwa uPrieto akazange abone njalo. Owayesakuba ngumakhi womzimba ovela eCuba (Utyhala uVinny ngendlela engeyiyo, uyakubona ukuba iCuba iphuma kuye, umntu owayethenjwa ngu-Prieto wakha waxelela iPolitickerNJ), uPrieto wadlala umdlalo ofanayo nalowo uSweeney noChristie badlala ngawo, kuphela benenkalipho encinci kwaye into ethethileyo yomntu into yokubonisa ikhadi. Akukho namnye owathi ukuma kwakhe kubasebenzi becandelo likarhulumente kungalandelelwa ngokwasemoyeni kumdlalo wesiqhushumbisi wokuziphindezela egameni likaChristie odilizwe nguMarco Rubio, unyana wabaphambukeli baseCuba. Kodwa bekukho iindonga ezingaphulwanga ngaphakathi kwe-Prieto -zinye zazo zicacile- njengendawo yakhe kwidrama yobuzwilakhe evelayo, ezinye zazo zingaqondakali- ukuba akazukuvuma ukwaphulwa ngaphandle komlo.
Omkhulu uDon Guardian
Ukulungiselela unyulo kwakhona ngo-2017, inkokheli yeRiphabhlikhi yeSixeko iAtlantic izibonakalisile ukuba ingomnye umntu ongafuniyo ukutyhalwa. Isaphetha ebotshiwe i-nerd engakhange ibonakale ngathi luhlobo lwabathathi-nxaxheba kwi-echelon yeqela eliphambili elixabisekileyo ngabafana bakaChristie bangaphakathi, u-Guardian wayebonakala ngathi ubulala indlela ngaphambi kokuba umdaniso uqale. Kodwa walwa wabuya, esiya ezinzwaneni (enye ifikelele ilize kwizikweko ezingakhange zikhwaze ngokucacileyo ibala lokudlala le-2) kunye nerhuluneli, ngakumbi kwinkomfa yabezindaba ye-izolo. Kodwa unengxaki ebonakalayo ezayo: ubukho kwimisitho yakhe yoonondaba kaMongameli weBhunga uMarty Small. Izinto ezifumanekayo kumajelo eendaba zenzelwe ukuveza umanyano lwedolophu, kunye nosodolophu kunye nenkosi yebhunga ngokudibeneyo beveza ingqumbo. Kodwa zenza umfanekiso ophindwe kabini, apho u-Guardian ayinguye yedwa ubuso be-Atlantic City kodwa icala elinye lengqekembe ebandakanya uSmall, othe ngeyona ndlela ungumkhuphisi oyintloko weGuardian kusodolophu eze ngo-2017. Ngelixa u-Guardian esilwa nokuthathwa kukarhulumente, naye ukuba azikhathaze ngemizamo ye-Small polvy yezopolitiko eyaziwayo njengoyena tshaba uChristie ugculelayo. Ngalo lonke ixesha uMgcini eqhwaba uChristie kwimakrofoni, uSmall akakude kude ukuqhuba ngengqiniba, kulandele ukukhaba.
USodolophu uSteven Fulop
Uhlaselwe nguChristie njengonodoli ongcolileyo emva kukaPrieto, uFulop uhleli ngokuzolileyo kwaye avumele le ntlekele yaseTrenton idlale njengokuwa koBukhosi baseRoma, evumela abalinganiswa abaphambili ukuba bathathe iindima zabo kwaye bazise kwisiphelo sabo ngelixa elinde umzuzu wakhe. ukuthatha inxenye ye-pristine prince. Asinguye wonke umntu okufumanisa kuhlekisa. I-PolitickerNJ kule veki ifumene i-imeyile engaziwayo evela kumntu oqale iwebhusayithi echasene neFulop, ethembisa ukuveza inyani engcolileyo emva kukasodolophu weSixeko saseJersey. Kodwa okwangoku, iFulop inengxelo ethandekayo, njengoko ixhasa umbutho wecandelo likarhulumente-uxhalabile uPretoo kunye (namahlakani eSouth Jersey!) Umgcini kunye noMncinci ngokuchasene neTrenton duo endala edinayo yeRiphabhlikhi uChristie kunye (nembangi yeFulop kwi-2017 iDemocratic Primary Sweeney.
