Until Andrews changed his mind, Norcross was headed to Congress

South Jersey Democrats will back Rob Andrews' return to the U.S. House of Representatives, but some members of the party leadership aren't entirely thrilled with Andrews' change of mind.  Sources with knowledge of party business say that Andrews' repalcement would have been South Jersey AFL-CIO President Donald Norcross, the Camden County Democratic Co-Chairman and the brother of South Jersey Democratic leader George Norcross.  Donald Norcross had been prepared to enter the race for Congress sometime in early September.

A Promise is a Promise


Congressman Andrews should have kept his word and not now re-enter the race to win back is seat. Like Bob Brady in South Philly, Why not a Norcross in Congress too.

They could take the train together and work on key issues that would be valuable to both States.

I prefer a Norcross to an Andrews.

Stick to your word


I've totally lost respect for Andrews after this decision.
