Ngandlela-thile, iphulo leNdlu yeeNgwevu kaDick Zimmer ngokuchasene noFrank Lautenberg lijongeka ngokumangalisayo njengoRob Andrews ongumceli mngeni ophambili weDemokhrasi kwi-Senator.
Kwiveki yesibini ilandelelana, uZimmer ubambe inkomfa noonondaba ukuba acele umngeni kuLautenberg kwiingxoxo zikamabonakude- kubandakanya ezimbini kule nyanga. Ngeli xesha, uZimmer wayemi neNkokeli ye-Senate encinci kaRhulumente u-Thomas Kean, Omnci, owaxoxa iingxoxo ezimbini ngoJuni no-Sen. Bob Menendez ngethuba lomdyarho wabo ngo-2006.
Ukuba uSenator Menendez unokuxoxa ke, uSenator. Ngokuqinisekileyo uLautenberg unokuxoxa ngoku, utshilo uKean.
Kodwa iphulo likaZimmer lahlukile kwelikaAndrews ekubeni uZimmer akakholelwa ukuba ubudala bukaLautenberg buza kungqina ukuba sesichengeni kwakhe. Xa ebuzwa ukuba uLautenberg, 84, wayemdala kakhulu ukuba angasebenza elinye ixesha e-ofisini, uZimmer wathi Hayi, hayi ngokweminyaka.
Kukho iiSenethi esele zihambele phambili ebesoloko sisithethi esisebenzayo kunye nabameli belizwe labo. USenator Lautenberg khange abe ngummeli osebenzayo kwilizwe lethu, utshilo. Nantso ke ingxabano endinayo naye. Akukho malunga nobudala bakhe.
Uninzi lwabaphendulayo a uphononongo lwamva nje lweQuinnipiac, Nangona kunjalo, waziva ngenye indlela. Amashumi amahlanu anesine eepesenti athi iSenaor indala kakhulu ukuba ingasebenza ngoku.
UZimmer uthe uLautenberg wayesele esalile isimemo sengxoxo-mpikiswano evela kuMbutho weeNqila waseNew Jersey ngoLwesihlanu.
Ngelishwa, u-Sen. Lautenberg ubhengeze ukuba akafumaneki, oku nangona isithethi sakhe sithe kwiveki ephelileyo iingxoxo ziyinxalenye 'yalo naliphi na iphulo.'
Kwakukho kwi-Association of Counties kwintlanganiso kwiminyaka emibini edlulileyo ukuba uKean, emva kokuphepha ukwabelana ngeqonga kunye noMenendez, wenze ilinge lakhe lokubaleka elidumileyo kumajelo eendaba ukuya kwisinyusi .
Ewe kunjalo, ukutyhala uLautenberg kwingxoxo-mpikiswano akuzange kusebenze njengesicwangciso sika-Andrews. Ekugqibeleni, uLautenberg uvumile kwingxoxo-mpikiswano kwiintsuku nje ezimbini ngaphambi konyulo-ingxoxo enye kanomathotholo kunye nengxoxo-nye kumabonakude kwi-NJN ngorhatya lwangoLwesihlanu. UZimmer, nangona kunjalo, wanyanzelisa ukuba akayikhuphi mingeni yokufumana amanqaku ezopolitiko.
Andizukugweba ukuba zeziphi iinjongo zikaRob Andrews, kodwa ayisiyiyo iqhinga lezopolitiko, utshilo. Le yinto noFrank Lautenberg kunye nam sobabini esinetyala labo kubavoti baseNew Jersey, ke yinto endizakuthetha ngayo ngenjongo yokufumana urhulumente olungileyo.
UZimmer ukwadize ukuba umcebisi ngezopolitiko uSteve DeMicco, owayesebenzela uMenendez kwiminyaka emibini edlulileyo, wabhala ileta enegama elinobuchule kuKean echaza ukuba kutheni iingxoxo zikamabonakude zibaluleke kangaka kwinkqubo.
UDeMicco ugqithisele amagqabantshintshi kwisithethi saseLautenberg uJulie Roginsky, ongakhange awuphendule umbuzo wempikiswano kaJuni ngokukodwa kodwa wakhupha ingxelo eyenze yacaca ukuba asizukubona mpikiswano de kube kufutshane nolonyulo.
TYinkomfa yemithombo yeendaba ebibanjwe zii-clone ezimbini zeRiphabhlikhi yase-Bush, bobabini kwimikhankaso yabo yelizwe lonke abangazange banike abavoti nto ngaphandle kwenkxaso yemigaqo-nkqubo yoLawulo lwe-Bush, utshilo. Ngokwenene ukhona umahluko omkhulu phakathi kwenkxaso engagungqiyo kaDick Zimmer kwimbono kaGeorge Bush kunye nobunkokeli obuqhubela phambili nobusebenzayo beSenator Lautenberg egameni leNew Jersey kwaye sijonge phambili ekuxoxeni ngale micimbi ekwindla. '
Ngokubhekiselele kwileta eneminyaka emibini ubudala kaDeMicco, uRoginsky uthe igama likaDeMicco alikho kwivoti.
Ingqungquthela yabezindaba yanamhlanje iza kwizithende zoku kuchazwe apha ngasentla I-poll yeQuinnipiac ebonisa uZimmer ebaleka emva kweLautenberg 47% -38%. A Rasmussen Iingxelo poll ekhutshwe ngoMvulo , nangona kunjalo, wabonisa uLautenberg kunye noZimmer kubushushu obufileyo.
An Uhlalutyo olwenziwe yiYunivesithi yaseMonmouth Umvoti uPatrick Murray ukuthathele ingqalelo ukubaluleka kweevoti kwangoko kwinkqubo-ubuncinci ukuya kuthi ga ekugqityweni kwesiphumo sonyulo. Kodwa wathi inye into icacile: IRiphabhlikhi ebeka ithuba lokuphumelela kwilizwe lonke kufuneka iqale ngesiseko esibanzi senkxaso kunokuba iqela libonakala linalo ngoku.
Oko kusenokuthetha ukubhenela kubavoti kwiindawo zemveli zedemokhrasi ebeziphuma zininzi kakhulu ukuba oogxa babo beRiphabhlikhi kwiindawo ezisemaphandleni nasezilalini - njengekhaya likaZimmer eHunterdon County.
UZimmer, owazalelwa eNewark kwaye wakhulela kwiindawo ezingqonge le randi, wathi uyasiqonda isidingo sokubhena kubavoti kwiindawo zaseDemokhrasi ngokwesiko. Ngo-Lwesibini, umzekelo, wayeye kwintlanganiso yokuhlengahlengisa i-Essex County Republican.
Ndacacisa ukuba utata uvela njani eNewark kwaye umama uvela e-East Orange, kwaye ndihlala njani eBloomfield, Glen Ridge, South Orange nase West Orange, utshilo. Kwaye ndabaxelela ukuba i-Essex iya kuba yinxalenye ebaluleke kakhulu yesicwangciso sam, njengoko kunjalo nakwezinye izithili ezineedolophu ezinkulu.
