2009 Gubernatorial Candidates Voters' Guide The League of Women Voters of New Jersey Education Fund encourages informed participation in the electoral process. As part of this mission, we formulated the following set of questions to ask all candidates running for New Jersey Governor. Answers have been truncated at 125 words and have not been edited for spelling or grammar. If a candidate did not return the questionnaire or did not provide a response to a particular question, “No Response Received” appears next to his name. The candidates were sent questions 1-10 first, and 11-14 at a later date. Select a question to view the responses. 1. With the global recession continuing, what specific measures would you enact to create jobs and foster economic development in New Jersey?6. What health care reform measures need to be enacted in New Jersey, and how should they be funded? 7. Please discuss your energy plan for New Jersey. Please give at least one specific example. 12. What is your position on a woman's right to comprehensive reproductive health services? 13. What methods do you support for reducing poverty and ensuring access to affordable housing?
