It’s just another example of not taking anything for granted and running a full scale campaign.
Stack chairs the powerful Senate Judiciary Committee. Among those Democratic heavyweights in attendance were Senate President Nicholas Scutari, Assembly Speaker Craig Coughlin, Hudson County Commission Chairman Anthony Vainieri, who’s in line to succeed Jersey City Councilwoman Amy DeGise as the next Chairman of the Hudson County Democratic Organization, local Mayors Richard Turner of Weehawken, and Gabriel Rodriguez of West New York, plus members of the Union City board of Commissioners.
Also on hand were the Chairman of the Middlesex County Democratic Party Kevin McCabe and Gary Taffet, a political insider.
