Karcher v. Beck V

The fifth and final debate between Sen. Ellen Karcher and Assemblywoman Jennifer Beck will go down tomorrow in Marlboro, the most populous town in this contentious 12th district senate contest.

The campaigns have built up to this moment, where in the midst of a blitz of radio and television ads, shrieking voices, frantic cell phone calls and a chattering class assessment that Karcher is in trouble, these two bitter antagonists will stand on an otherwise barren stage for one last trumpet blast.

The debates have been battlezones here in the 12th.

Beck changes spending cut priorities in face of Karcher challenge

When State Sen. Ellen Karcher challenged Assemblywoman Jennifer Beck in a taped television debate with Michael Aron today to explain why she wants to cut $12,000,000 from New Jersey After 3, Beck denied that was one of her budget cuts.

But it was listed as such in a power point on Beck's website - at least until today.

"She was caught in a lie in an NJN debate," Karcher campaign spokesman Michael Premo said of Beck. "When she was called out on it, they altered their website."
