N.J. farmer cuts corn maze of Gov. Christie and Dem challenger

Regardless of what you may or my not think of the candidates running for New Jersey's governorship this fall, you have to admit this is pretty cool!





From the Associated Press and CBS News:

CHESTER, N.J. A New Jersey farmer has cut the faces of Republican Gov. Chris Christie and his Democratic challenger into a corn maze to highlight the state's gubernatorial election.

The corn was planted in June at the Stony Hill Farm in Chester.

Owner Dale Davis tells Newark's The Star-Ledger newspaper he chose the maze to get people interested. He says everybody recognizes Christie but he doesn't know whether a lot of people would recognize gubernatorial rival Sen. Barbara Buono.

Christie is far ahead of Buono in public polls and leads among nearly every demographic group. He's seen as a viable contender for the 2016 Republican nomination for president.

The Morris County maze will open to the paying public Aug. 31. The election is Nov. 5.

What concerns me about Christie is that he is already campaigning for president and his decisions here in NJ are reflecting his eye on the national scene. That's not right. He should be focused on what NJ residents want. At least Buono will really be looking out for us.
