LIZETTE DELGADO-POLANCO |
| The Senate Majority Leader sees her landmark legislation making Non-Disclosure Agreements in sexual harassment, assault and discrimination lawsuits is signed into law by Gov. Phil Murphy | Repeated from last week, and the week before: how many more punches in the face can the embattled CEO of the New Jersey Schools Development Authority take before Gov. Phil Murphy calls uncle and fires her? |
| CORY BOOKER | CHARLIE GREEN |
| The U.S. Senator from New Jersey makes the cutoff to participate in the first Democratic presidential debate. | It’s never a good idea to play the “do you know who I am card,” as the former Essex County jail warden found out. |
| ANNA LITTLE | EDWARD FORCHION |
| The former Monmouth County freeholder gets appointed to serve as a U.S. Immigration judge. | The Weedman can’t even get arrested for selling marijuana outside the statehouse anymore. |
| JOSEPH CORONATO | JOHN RUSSO |
| The former Ocean County prosecutor gets the organization line for mayor of Toms River — although he faces a primary from one (and maybe two) rivals. | The Superior Court Judge faces a sexual harassment lawsuit from a former law clerk. He now has to face Neil Mullin and Nancy Erika Smith. |

| PHIL MURPHY | |
| The governor of New Jersey faces a critical test on Monday when the Legislature is set to consider one of the cornerstones of his legislative agenda: the legalization of recreational marijuana. As of now, he doesn’t have the votes. This is New Jersey, where legislators change their views quickly, but this is going to be a tough one for the governor. | |
