New Jersey in 2000

[Starbucks Union Thug HokeyPuck]

I wasn't really into state politics until after 2000, but can anyone explain to me how Al Gore managed to win NJ by 16 pts in 2000?  Hell, if Nader wasn't running and he picks up those votes, he's a pt away from 60%! 

NJ's Democratic but it's not a state where the Dems usually get 60%.

Corzine spent something like $69M on voter turnout.

Scaredy-cat idiot suburbanites voted for Gun Control in 2000. These are the same people who are frightened of terrorists today.
You see the same thing all over the metropolitan northeast.

And people in the Midwest hated Gore for it, which is why Minnesota came so close to voting for Bush.

Yep. Gore thought his pro-gun control stance would help him with Ohio women voters. It ended up hurting him. Good ole' Ohio.

My feeling on this issue is that reducing poverty and socioeconomic inequality while improving education and social services will do a lot more to reduce gun violence than gun control will.
