PolitickerNJ.com turns 9 1/2 on Saturday; July 2009 is best traffic month ever
By Wally EdgeIt has been an amazing two weeks for those who view New Jersey politics as a spectator sport. Kim Guadagno and Loretta Weinberg have made history as the first major party candidates for Lieutenant Governor. Three mayors, two Assemblymen, and multitude of local officials, and even a few Rabbis, were arrested. A man named Solomon Dwek now has 100% name ID, at least within the political world.
At PolitickerNJ.com, recent events have created an unprecedented interest in political news for July. As compared to July 2008, visits to our site are up 62%!!!
