There's no turning back for State Senator Barbara Buono. She's pushing every chip she has to the center of the table and going all-in.

New Jersey's senior U.S. Senator will travel today to his hometown of Paterson to announce his pending retirement. Frank Lautenberg will not seek re-election in 2014 and that changes the entire dynamic of that particular race.

The only Democrat, whose hat is in the ring to challenge Republican Governor Christie, has a tough road ahead. So says a New Jersey political scientist, who thinks Barbara Buono must take a different path in her run against the wildly popular Governor.

New Jersey Democratic gubernatorial candidate Barbara Buono's staff said Tuesday that she is fine after suffering a cut to her forehead in a car accident and is being cited for not wearing a seat belt.

New Jersey residents and more importantly, New Jersey voters still give Governor Chris Christie sky-high approval and favorability ratings and more than 6-in-10 are ready to re-elect him to a second term.

What's important to you? That's a question New Jersey voters will be asking themselves before the vote for a gubernatorial candidate in November.

Governor Chris Christie has high approval ratings in all the latest polls, but is he unbeatable when it comes to the November election?

New Jersey's open space funding program is broke. Lawmakers in Trenton have three options for replenishing it.

You know that spirit of bi-partisanship that Governor Chris Christie is always talking about? It looks like maybe we can forget about that this year. All 120 seats in the State legislature and the Governor's office are up for grabs in November and it's in election years like this that politics really comes out to play.

Can State Senator Barbara Buono beat Governor Chris Christie in this year's gubernatorial election?  Most political experts say no.  But Buono doesn't agree.
