From NJ.com:
Barely known outside of the state’s political circles, the candidates vying to become New Jersey’s first lieutenant governor pulled no punches last night in their only debate heading into the Nov. 3 election.
Democratic state Sen. Loretta Weinberg, Republican Monmouth County Sheriff Kim Guadagno and independent Frank Esposito held their 90-minute debate at Monmouth University amid a fiesty live audience that often interrupted with cheers and boos.
The candidates sparred over taxes, corruption and health care. They also got personal, dishing out sharp critiques of one another and especially the gubernatorial candidates.
