PoliPundit Looks At New Jersey Race – Asks For Help With “Calling Congress” Project

The blog PoliPundit has a post today about the New Jersey's Governor's race. Good to see a blog outside of New Jersey paying attention to our state. PoliPundit is a blog we enjoy and suggest if you haven’t read them before, that you give them a look.

Enlighten-New Jersey has been asked to participate in a project with PoliPundit - referred to as “Calling Congress”. Polipundit and their readers have developed a set of twenty questions they would like to have answered by every member of the House and Senate. Rather than actually calling congress, they have asked for volunteers willing to email the questions to their own Senator or member of Congress to improve the response rate.

Enlighten-New Jersey has agreed to cover New Jersey and so we are soliciting our readers to volunteer to email the questionnaire to their representative in Congress. It would be great if we could get one volunteer for each congressional district. You can read more about the project over at Polipundit with their posts here, here and here. The final set of questions is posted here.

Enlighten-New Jersey will post the results received from New Jersey’s members of congress and Polipundit will consolidate and post the results for the entire country on their site. If you would like to help – email us and let us know the member of congress you would like to contact.

It will be interesting to see the response rate and the answers to the questions.
